A SIM card is a module that is used to identify a user in cellular networks. The abbreviation SIM stands for Subscriber Identification Module. This communication format is currently used in GSM networks, and there are two types of SIM cards: mini SIM and micro SIM. "SIM" for a tablet is a micro SIM card, and its dimensions are 15-12 mm.
Those devices that are equipped with a 3G module can work with SIM cards designed for tablets in order to use them to access the Internet. There are tablet computers that allow you to use 3G to make calls, just like a call from a regular phone. However, all these possibilities primarily depend on the mobile operator, as well as on hardware and software. It often happens that tablet manufacturers cut off the possibility of using SIM cards in some countries.
If you need"sim card" for a tablet, then you can purchase it from almost any operator by choosing a convenient tariff in advance. For example, there are suitable tariffs with a price for unlimited use, but here a certain amount of traffic is offered at a cheap price, and the cost when exceeded is completely different, and the speed is limited. If you have a GPS tracker, the device will work at different rates. Here you have to calculate how much traffic will be spent per day during the operation of the GPS module.
Megaphone tariffs
If you have, for example, a SIM card for a Megafon tablet, then several tariff plans for this type of device are offered here. For each tariff, the amount of traffic is 3-40 GB. So if you are going to watch movies online and also download a large number of files from the Internet, you will have to take the most expensive plan. In order to simply surf the sites, look for different information, a tariff plan with 6 GB of traffic is suitable. In this case, the speed will not be limited by Megafon itself, but will depend on the degree of network congestion. This applies to all rates. "Sim card" for a tablet with the ability to access the Internet can be used anywhere where there is coverage of the "MegaFon" operator.
MTS Tariffs
Mobile operator MTS has developed an Internet package called "MTS Tablet" specifically for tablets. Here, for 400 rubles a month, the operator offers 3 GBtraffic. "Simka" for a tablet of this type is valid throughout the MTS coverage area. In addition, another function is offered from this operator - "Mobile TV".
"Sims" for tablets from different operators can work on Android devices, but models with other operating systems also support this technology. All mobile operators, in case of exceeding the limit set for traffic, interrupt access to the Internet until the next payment.
Before inserting the SIM card into the tablet, you need to study in detail the tariffs of different operators. If you make the wrong choice, then the money will be wasted, and in the worst case, the tablet will deteriorate. At the same time, please note that the quality of communication depends on the operator you choose, as well as the availability of an Internet connection anywhere.
