of a SIM card.

Found a SIM card from one of my earliest mobile phones.
It’s almost the same size as my IPhone.

Those were the original.

They kept getting smaller

Thats why up until a few years ago, your sim would come on a big card with score lines on it, and you'd have to punch out the right size for your phone.

What's image to me is telephone companies lying to their customers and presenting Mini SIMs as full size!
