Need a new phone

[Brian66]

My phone has just died. Can I move my sim card to another used phone?

@Brian66  Yes you can move physical SIM card from one phone to another phone . And if the SIM card in old phone appears to large for the SIM card slot on new phone you can just pop off the outer edge of the SIM card to fit new phones SIM card tray 

3 hole punch /desired size

Note flat edge corner / fit flush in tray

No lifting or rising /push in all the way

When you are buying a used phone. Check to see if it is Blacklisted that was reported lost or stolen.

Dial *#06# to get the IMEI number and enter it:

If it is a carrier brand, you can check this whitelist.  If the phone is not a carrier brand, ask the community.  Generally android devices that are fairly current will work.

@Brian66 

hard sim can be re-installed in new cell. Esim...you need to download app to new cell, then re-buy an esim, but it'll end up being gratis.

hi @Brian66 

you can simply move the sim to the new phone.  When you start using it, better to click Refresh network settings

Your Public Mobile SIM card can be used in any compatible device.

Yes, you can as long as you have a physical sim

make sure the new phone is compatible with PM network
