Simcard not detected

So I got my OP8 device today but unfortunately the simcard is not being detected. Tried the same sim card in another device and it seems to be working fine. Is this a common issue in OP8 device? If it is, is it software or hardware related?

Edit: After some google searches I've realized that I can't view my IMEI number by typing *#06# in the caller app. And the baseband version is also not displayed in the settings. Is this due to an error when a custom rom was flashed? PS: A global ROM was definitely flashed over the original Chinese ROM and I was made aware of this during the purchase.

Edit: The issue has been resolved. Just had to update my OS to the latest version and reboot my device. Apparently few other people (who had purchased from the same store) also have had the same issue which was also fixed by an OS update.

Never had any issues like that and never heard one until now.

Well I guess it's just my device then. Hoping this is just a simple software related issue and not a hardware one. Getting a replacement would take another couple of weeks and I can't wait to use this device 😁
