[CNMO News] The latest support file from Apple shows that since October, the SIM card released by Apple will not be able to continue to support the activation of supported iPad-related data package services. The reason has not been disclosed yet. There are speculations that it may be because Apple will mainly promote eSIM card next, so the existence of Apple SIM card has become a bit useless.

cellular iPad models that support this change are the following products:
iPad Air 2
