If by "chip" you are referring to SIM card, the device accepts nano SIM standard. There are two, general, service protocols across the globe, GSM and CDMA that are split up into two bands (four bands total) All cell phones use one or both protocols, two or four bands. This device (iPhone 8) itself is a quad (four) band device. This means it is capable of communicating with all service protocols. However, depending on the agreement you make when buying the device it can be locked to one or the other and although capable of all services, it's being artificially restricted.
