    This came with the sim tray for Nano all the way to the large. They are competitively price phone plains but no one is cheap than T-Mobile for a sim.

    Very simple setup method and the chip works as advertised. I'm on a very strict budget so I got this cheap option to avoid getting caught without communication.

    The SIM starter kit worked fine. Really like the adapter that came with it which converts nano to micro or regular SIM.

    The best thing about this is that you get adapters -- it's a nano SIM with adapters that make it work in phones that use micro as well as standard size SIM cards.

    If you need a T-Mobile sim, there is no where cheaper than Best Buy. At least 5$ cheaper at the time I purchased it.

    This item is perfect for an easy way to make your micro sim card fit in any sim slot without user modification. Sim itself works as well as a sim card should.

    I feel like the best thing you can say about a SIM card is that you have nothing to say about it. A decent SIM card will do what it's supposed to, and that's about it. If you have a strong opinion about a SIM card, that's a bad sign. Anyway, this SIM card is fine, it comes with three size options to fit any phone, it works, it's cheap, it's simple to port your own number over, that's about all you can ask from a SIM card.

    Bought this just for the adapter. The price was similar to ordering the adapter off Amazon and I get it immediately. Well worth it just for the adapter.

    This T-Mobile sim card was cheap and it quickly got me into the T-Mobile LTE network but unfortunately their pay by the day plans are non existent. So that means you should go for pay as you go. Which has 30 min talk and 30 sms and you have to purchase a data pass or pay by the month with unlimited talk text and unlimited data with a high speed limit or the $80 unlimited LTE data plan which has no data throttling. Final verdict go with simply prepaid even if the $40 plan has a max speed LTE limit of 8 Mbps

    This is a good complete starter kit, if you need 3rd party activation method. However, you can get individual cards for free or close to free when on sale at t-mobile website.

    Easier than ordering through a cumbersome online process with T-Mobile and you get essentially 3 SIMs so you will have the size you need.

    Good value compared to T-Mobile online purchase ($2.99 vs $20). Wait for the promotion price at BestBuy.com, usually during the holiday periods (Black Friday, Christmas, New Years, etc). Easy to install in phone. As per instructions, required call to T-Mobile customer service in order to validate SIM card and activate the service.
