    tied it around my keychain because SIMs are still much more handy than esim. Phone service where I live charge a fuck ton of money everytime you re register with the QR.

        its not really changing sim but more like changing phone. I have the big S24 Ultra but sometimes I just want something smaller and easier to carry, so I swap to a Zenfone 10.

    I am the distributor of cell phones where I work. I have a box of these. They’re also useful to reset UniFi and other networking equipment.

    I have a key holder with a fabric holder above it for random things. Like my checkbook for paying the gardeners, the mailbox keys, and this doodad is leftover from when I used to have a rechargeable front door camera doorbell.

    I have one sitting on my fireplace mantle in a little dish. It’s there to pop our Arlo doorbell off when it needs to come inside to charge.

    I used to work for a cell phone “fixer” place. The quotations are because the hardware and software on iPhones is so locked down. Usually we would get iPhones that broke in a way that was out of warranty. Their warranty sucks. You will pay for your iPhone until it dies. Then you will pay for a new one. Android based devices followed suit. Neither had this problem starting out.

    I got two ifixit kits and that’s all I need, even though I stopped repairing the phone and just trade in every three years.

      Yupppp; same here.

      I think the Librem 5 (may’ve been another phone) came with a hole to attach to a keychain so it’s the only one that I constantly have on me solely because someone thought to design for it.

      I never throw out boxes, because I know as soon as I’m unable to get it back I’ll need it for something.
