This SIM card fits the Huawei P9

To be able to use all the features of your new smartphone, you need a SIM card for the Huawei P9. The nano SIM is currently the smallest SIM card format and measures 12.3 x 8.8 mm and is also required for the Huawei. Many providers give you the option of requesting a new free card for your rate via the online portal. In addition, you usually get a triple SIM with newer contracts, so you already get all available sizes.

How to properly adjust the SIM card for your Huawei P9 before insertion

If you used a card in mini or micro format in your previous smartphone instead of a nano SIM card, it is not necessarily necessary to buy a new card. Alternatively, it is possible to cut your SIM card to size with the help of a template. But please be sure not to damage the chip of the SIM card.

1. First print out a nano SIM template in A4 format from the Internet and cut it out.
2. Now you need a glue stick to attach the template to the SIM card with its help.
3. Then take a pair of scissors and cut the SIM card along the template.
4. To insert the cut SIM card, please remove the back of the Huawei P9 and insert the SIM into the slot provided.
