What happens if I take my SIM card and put it in another phone?

Can you just switch SIM cards between phones?

You can often switch your SIM card to a different phone, provided the phone is unlocked (meaning, it is not tied to a particular carrier or device) and the new phone will accept the SIM card. All you need to do is remove the SIM from the phone it is in currently, then place it into the new unlocked phone.

What happens if I take my SIM card and put it in another phone?

When you move your SIM to another phone, you keep the same cell phone service. SIM cards make it easy for you to have multiple phone numbers so you can switch between them whenever you like. In contrast, only SIM cards from a specific cell phone company will work in its locked phones.

Does taking out the SIM card delete everything?

Smartphones usually have at least two stores of memory: a SIM card, and the phone's internal memory. Removing the SIM card stops the phone from communicating with the network, but doesn't erase the email and contact lists already on the phone.

Will I lose my photos if I put my SIM card in another phone?

No, a SIM card is for your cell phone carrier. A SIM card only could affect your data and phone number. So SIM card does not erase any photos or anything.
