Hi, I'm thinking about getting a new iPhone 17. I intend to keep my 11 for back up. If the need arose, is it easy to switch from the 17 back to the 11 which has a physical sim? I don't want both phones on the network at the same time and know that is not possible without having another plan for the second phone.
Many thanks.
Kevin
