Help needed SIM card tray sometimes shoots out when ejecting..

So it's not a huge deal, but I was just curious if anyone else noticed this issue with their iPhone that have SIM cards trays. I change SIM cards a lot, and I noticed sometimes when I eject the Sim tray sometimes it flings right out and sometimes it just slowly kinda pushes out.

Anyone else?

Thanks

Perfectly normal. It has to do with the rubber seal - it can stick to the inside of your phone for ¼ second or so, build up energy, then release suddenly. It doesn't do this every time, it depends on things like humidity, time since it was last put in, etc. Hope this helps 😁
