Huawei Mate 9: This SIM card requires the smartphone

The Huawei Mate 9 is the new flagship of the Chinese smartphone manufacturer. In this article, we reveal which SIM card you need for the top mobile phone.

Huawei Mate 9: the right SIM card

The Huawei Mate 9 convinced in the CHIP test with great performance, a strong camera and a bright display. The equipment is also above average. This is not least due to the smartphone's shared dual SIM slot:

• This means: You can operate the Huawei Mate 9 with two SIM cards at the same time - for example a private and a business SIM. There is a small limitation, however. If you also occupy the second SIM slot, there is no more space for a memory card. If, on the other hand, you only need a SIM card, you can expand the memory using a microSD card.
• Regardless of whether you want to operate the Mate 9 with one or two SIMs, in both cases you need a nano-SIM. This is currently the smallest SIM card with only the gold chip visible.
• If you still have a larger SIM card, you can usually exchange it free of charge from your mobile operator for a suitable nano SIM.
• Alternatively, many cards offer small break points from which you can resize the SIM card to the right size. If your card does not have such breaks, you can still cut it yourself.
