The simple answer is "maybe." It depends on many variables and the first is what you mean by "any." There are different sizes of sim cards. Starting with the iPhone 4, the iPhone started taking the micro-sim card and the iPhone 5 takes the nano-sim card. If you are talking about switching your phone between carriers, that is a little more complex. iPhones come in different varieties depending on the original carrier it was meant for because the different carriers use different cellular technologies, namely GSM and CDMA. AT&T and T-Mobile in the US use GSM while Verizon and Sprint use CDMA. Most iPhones sold in the US are also locked to the carrier they were originally purchased from although it has been reported that Verizon iPhones are completely unlocked on the GSM side and will take any nano-sim card. It has also been reported that, while Verizon phones may work on other networks, they will not let other phones work on theirs.

So, again, not really a simple answer. If you are thinking about buying a phone that was intended for one network and use it on another, you better do your research for your particular situation. If you already have a phone and want to try it on another network and have the sim car, just try it and hope for the best.
