I know it’s an odd question, but where I live phones get stolen often. My phone doesn’t have the option for an eSim, which is a problem because 90% of the time when a thief steals a phone they take out the SIM card immediately, meaning I wouldn’t be able to remotely lock or wipe my phone.

Should I consider glueing the SIM tray shut? Or are there alternative less permanent measures I can take to keep my device secure?

    Get a metal case, weld it shut. Connect it to a long chain and a 25kg dumbbell. Guaranteed they won’t rob you of your phone.

        And you’ll be buffed within weeks. Just remember to switch sides every now and then, you don’t wanna look like Quagmire discovering the internet…

          Ahh imagine carrying on one side for too long, the back pain…

          Maybe I could also look into hiring someone to carry the setup for me, that way I can have even more peace of mind knowing I’m protecting my health and my data! /s
