I agree this would be very useful.

Today, Graph can return some Intune managed device properties, but not everything that is visible in the Intune “Device inventory” experience is available in a clean or complete way through Graph, especially for detailed iOS SIM/eSIM inventory scenarios.

For environments with dual-SIM iPhones, this becomes a real operational gap. If the portal can show the information, admins naturally expect to be able to export it or automate it through Graph as well.

Ideally, Microsoft should expose this data in one of two ways:

  1. Add the full iOS Device Inventory fields to the managedDevice / hardwareInformation Graph model.
  2. Provide an Intune report export that includes this information for all devices.

For now, I would treat this as a product limitation rather than a PowerShell issue. A Graph API or exportable report would definitely make sense for asset management, telecom inventory, phone number mapping, and automation scenarios.
