UMI Plus: You need this SIM card
The UMI Plus is a so-called dual SIM cell phone. So you can insert two SIM cards and make calls or surf with both. In this practical tips, we reveal which format the China cell phone needs and in which cases you can continue to use your previous SIM card.
UMI Plus: These are the right SIM cards
The UMI Plus has space for two micro SIM cards. This SIM card format is slightly smaller than the normal SIM card. If you still have a standard or the smaller nano-SIM, you can get to the micro-SIM in different ways:
- It is best for owners of a standard SIM to cut it into the correct format. You can find detailed instructions in our special article.
- If you already have the small nano SIM, you need a micro SIM adapter. Insert your nano-SIM into the template and then insert the card into the UMI Plus.
- Alternatively, you can request a suitable micro SIM from your mobile operator. Many providers exchange their current SIM card for free; others charge small fees of up to 10 euros.
Insert SIM cards in the UMI Plus
The two SIM card slots can be found on the side of the UMI Plus. However, please note that you cannot insert an additional SD card if you want to use two SIM cards. The lower slot is therefore designed for either an SD card (for photos, apps and videos) or a SIM card.
- You open the two slots with a pin or a similar thin object that you use to pierce the small hole.
- Then the holder for the SIM card pops out. Insert your card there.
- Finally push the holder back into the phone. Make sure that the SIM card is completely and straight in the housing.
