Since the last 2 years of iPhone use nano sims. What does this mean “micro” sim. Does this mean we can’t take out our iPhone 11 nano sim and put it in our iPhone 12 pro so we don’t get a upgrade/activation fee??

They say micro sim. Nano sim is fine. Some older phones uses micro sim, that’s why the advice.

A micro sim is not a nano sim.

The last iPhone that used micro SIM was the iPhone 4S.

As far as I know, they haven't used a micro sim since the iPhone 4S. I'm not sure why that note is even there tbh. It'll only confuse people.
