Hi, does Huawei E173 model use the regular sim card and not the micro sim? I am looking to use a regular sim card with this.

Sorry can't help you. I don't know anything about this item I've never purchased it.

I think you'll need a smaller sim card(micro sim). Perhaps the sim card can be cut down, I'm not sure about this. I've had an E71 and some other various Nokia phones. The 720 sim is smaller than my E71 sim.

Ernesto, This model holds two Mini-SIM cards. (as CCinAZ mentioned) which you may mean by "normal". (See Wikipedia for images of the various sizes.)I successfully positioned a Micro-SIM card in one of the card slots temporarily, but exchanged it for a proper Mini-SIM card from a dealer a few days later.

Yes it does use a sim card, as it is an AT&T; type phone and all AT&T; phones use sim cards. The only problem that I have with the phone is that it is very limited as far as installing any apps on it. It only has about 180 MB to install any apps on. Other than that it works well for me.

Mine uses the regular SIM. I just reused the one from my old phone and that SIM is pretty old (technology-wise). It definitely pre-dates the micro SIM.

The phone worked with regular sim card. I had purchased (2) of these phones. I bought a regular sim card in Barbados and both phones worked fine.

It uses standard SIM card like the one T-Mobile & AT&T uses. I hope this helps.

This phone can use either the standard or micro Sim. The standard Sim is a little easier to install

It uses regular SIM card... but it quit working after a month. It will keep on rebooting and the phone was unusable. Amazon was good to take it back and I got new one Samsung Exhibit . So far very good.

To add to the mismatch of information - the Amazon specs for both the A01US and A03US models (64GB and this 128GB) - don't mention the WWAN (3G) capabilities, but the photo of the left-edge clearly shows a clearly-marked SIM card slot (labled "SIM", with a sim-card icon). I've read that it won't be the same AT

In order for me to use my Huawei Impulse 4G U8800 I had to get a cell phone provider who sent me a Sim card. You might want to call a Verizon cell phone provider and ask them if you can use this phone with a Sim card. Sears sells Huawei phones and Sim cards.

It uses a micro sim card. Your carrier should have them, if not you may have to cut the one you already have

You put your 3G card in the Huawei and it transmits Wi-Fi to the Wi-Fi devices (computer, ipad, etc.) and you don't have to have a router and standard Wi-Fi connection...the device can be used anywhere you get a 3G signal...driving in your car and you get 3G signal, you can use your Wi-Fi on your computer for internet...I use mine in Costa Rica, all phones are unlocked...don't know how it would work with the chips that go into locked phones in the USA...should work...

Yes, de Sim is micro, but it works well without cutting for standard cards. regards

At the time I bought it was a regular SIM card. I also bought a cutter to turn it into a micro SIM card. But maybe you can order a micro SIM, since it has passed one year from my last purchase.
