Does this device take a normal sim or a mini sim? My Verizon cellphone uses a mini sim and I would like to hot swap my sim.

it does not have a sim card that can be taken out...as soon as it receives the verizon signal you get a option to sign up on the spot. theres nothing else you have to do. i hope that answered your question.

It uses full size sim. You'll need an adapter that you can get for a few bucks around here.

It does take a normal full size sim card. You can tell by the tray it sits in.

"Micro-sim" only has a smaller size than a normal sim. You can find instructions online how to cut your normal sim into a micro-sim; or you can just go to your provider and buy a new "micro-sim" with your old number.

It uses a mini-SIM (the largest of the current SIM cards). It works well on Straight Talk for me, but it took some experimenting before I got data to work.

It uses the normal older size, which is the mini-SIM, not the one used for ther iPhone which are micro and nano. Works well and can take 2 of the SIM cards so you can switch between providers, plus a micro memory SD chip.

I'm pretty sure that SIM cards aren't used by Verizon. I may be wrong, though. I do recall that I had no issue with a SIM card when I bought one.

It requires the larger SIM card, I bought the mini, and put it in the adapter (large SIM sleeve). works great!

Phone uses standard SIM, not micro. T-Mobile will give you one when you bring in to switch service to new phone (recommended so they have support and service set for your device).

Yes, both use micro sim card. I did the same when my phone took a swim 9 months into my verizon 2 year contract.

No and any one who would tell you otherwise is a lier! I worked for Verizon for a very long time. This device and the other they carried can not be flashed to be used as a GSM based device. And this device is before dual band . The device can be only bought and used as a 1. Month to Month as part of your Family share plan no contract and if memory is correct $20.00 per month which uses existing data you have. 2. OPTION is alone which start new service with it have no contact and the cost is $ 50.00 5 GB or $80 for 10 GB but that price could be wrong . Price plans change . Then there is Per paid . Best I got for you. Hope that helps. Best this to do is call Verizon with the model number . Or go to see a rep you trust. But the device I bought from seller on here worked fabulous an still works over year later.

I'm not sure what a Mini-sim card is. We have at&t; and yes we do use their regular sized sim card. I bought this for my mother and it works for her. However if it was for someone who uses the phone a lot for texting it wouldn't be a good phone. Very light, cheaply made phone.

You can ask your cell phone company to change your Sim card for a MiniSim Card. Otherwise you can purchase the tool and addapter to cut the Sim yourselfe.

I don't know anything about Verizon. Do they even use sim cards? I think ATT, Tmobile and the rest of the world r the only ones that use sim cards. I would contact seller and ask.

Not sure if you understand your question? Verizon doesn't use a SIM chip as do most of the others. Verizon actually has to program the phone in shop when you purchase the phone so that it can see the Cell signals. AT&T doesn't, I lost my phone (My f'up) but any phone with a SIM slot will work, these are not SMART phones, but then I'm getting old, and telephones used to be to talk on not look a movies, TV, or maps.

Hi John, You need to go to Verizon to have it convert to prepaid SIM before you can use is as prepaid. Sincerely, Bargain & Savings

It takes a regular SIM. I took a sim from my T-mobile phone and installed it on this new phone and it has been working fine so far.

I use it w/ an at&t; sim card - no problems. It's regular-size, not a mini or micro.[LOVE this mobile!!!]
