Nano-SIM or Micro-SIM?

[ptonantryloc]

According to:

Google Nexus 5 (Unlocked)

The Nexus 5 uses a Nano-SIM. My Lumia 920 uses a micro-SIM. How would I go about swapping my SIM card back and forth between devices if they use different sized cards? If I cut it to fit the Nexus 5, I can't swap back to the Lumia 920. If I leave it to fit the Lumia, I can't use it in the Nexus 5. There are adapters to fit a nano-SIM into a micro-SIM device? If so, do they work well?

Pretty sure that site is wrong and its micro sim. They also list 3 gb of memory so I wouldnt put several mistakes past them

You need nano kit from Amazon. It comes with a tray that allows it to fit larger SIM sizes.

There are adapters. You can buy them for a buck on ebay. They work fine.

Your best bet is to cut it down to nano sim size for use in the N5 then use a micro-sim adapter for the 920.

Nexus 5 uses a Micro SIM. You're fine.

Awesome! I am thinking about getting a Nexus 5 for when I travel international.

Yes, its a micro SIM.

I have a nano but will just use adapter

It is a micro SIM. I bought some adapters on Amazon by Toosy or something like that for a few bucks. The adapter works great with my nano SIM in my S4.

Sent from my Moto X!

I'm wondering which it is for sure also. It doesn't matter because I have a adapter I already use with my G2 for my Moto X sim, but it would be nice to just swap back and forth between my Moto X with ease.

Micro SIM. I still need a new card though as my Galaxy Nexus has a mini SIM....
