What will happen if sim cards are no longer in used on mobile Phone?
GSMA (Group Speciale Mobile Association) formed in the year 1995, in association with mobile operators all over the globe. is  developing a way to get ride of cards.

GSMA Chief technology Officer says “Currently there is no agreed industry solution for how consumers can remotely connect devices to a mobile network"

GSMA. “This announcement demonstrates that the industry is unified in working to create a common and interoperable specification that will reduce market fragmentation and maintain the experience of connecting devices in the future.”

The GSMA Consumer Remote SIM Provisioning initiative is leading and coordinating industry activities with a number of complementary “proofs of concept”, which together are contributing to the development of an end-to-end remote SIM solution. These have been designed to help shape the best technical specification for the mobile industry as well as for consumers.

GSMA says e-SIM devices will be ready to ship by 2016, and a handful of other international carriers are apparently all on board to some extent.
You can be able to switch your network carriers on your mobile phone freely.
