The Moto G is one of the best prices for performance smartphones, and is even the most popular smartphone Motorola has ever released. It offers an impressive design and a wallet-friendly price that anyone can accept. However, many people who own one are first-time smartphone buyers with many questions. Here we will explain how to insert or replace the SIM card in Moto G.
At a low contract-free price of just $179, the 5-inch Moto G has a lot to offer consumers, even the smaller original Moto G from 2013. Its design and price made it popular and now millions of users have one. We are asked a lot of questions. Awesome screen and nice dual front-facing speakers aside, here’s how to do a task that many people have to do after getting their new phone.
If you bought the impressive Moto G for an incredibly low $179, it may not come with a SIM card you would need from your carrier to receive service, data, internet and use the smartphone. Many prepaid options are already installed and if you need to add a new SIM card, here it is.
There are two ways most smartphones are designed these days. They either have a removable back like most Samsung smartphones where the SIM card (or micro-SD storage card) is located and can be replaced, or they have a small SIM card ejection tool and a slot on the side or top of the device. .
The iPhone, Moto X, HTC One M8 and more have non-removable backs, so the SIM card needs to be accessed via a small tray on the side of the device. Oddly enough, the Moto G doesn’t have one of these and doesn’t seem to have a removable back. Samsung and LG devices have a small lip or notch where you can take the phone apart and access the back, but the Moto G does not. This is what confuses buyers and first time owners, but you can withdraw it.
Instructions
If you’ve just bought the Moto G from an online purchase like Amazon or Motorola.com, or you’ve chosen to buy the impressive phone at a low price and need to add your SIM card, we’ve got you covered. No removal tool and no notch to separate the back.
Turn the phone over and use your fingernail to pull the back of the phone, starting with the micro USB charging port. This is the easiest way and you will be able to easily remove the back. It closes immediately and snaps into place immediately. See the picture below.
When pulled back, you will notice the SIM slot near the top left corner. If a SIM card is already in it, just push it further and it will click open and it will pop out, you just don’t pull it out. Now add your new SIM card from T-Mobile, MetroPCS or anyone else, put the back cover back on and you’re all set.
It is worth noting that Motorola also offers multiple different colors for the plastic back cover of the Moto G. So if you have a white model like us, you can add a different color to it by purchasing pink, purple, green, blue or many other different options. a more unique and personalized look.
It doesn’t come off, but it comes off easily. This was a question we strangely received from countless owners of Moto G, and now you know it. Add a SIM and start enjoying that phone. By the way, expect an update to Android 5.0 Lollipop soon if you haven’t already.
