MTN To Introduce iPhone 5 Compatible Nano-SIM Cards in Nigeria [REPORT]


MTN subscribers in Nigeria looking to buy Apple’s latest smartphone, iPhone 5 would need to wait till October 5, as the company is set to release iPhone 5 compatible nano-SIM cards. The iPhone 5 which launched on September 12 requires a new kind of SIM card, called nano-SIM card, a smaller, thinner (0.67 mm) SIM card, instead of the micro-SIM, before they can be used. It is uncertain how much MTN Nigeria would sell its nano-SIM cards, although its micro-SIM card retailed for N1,000 when they were first introduced.

Just thinking out loud here - wouldn't a "cutter" simply do the trick?

Soooooooooo?

@empty N!!! Make una no reduce the cost of browsing.. Make una dey dere dey produce "malu sim" abi na "nama sim".. By the time una customers run finish una eye go clear...yeye thieves in yellow jersey
when people run finish,una go begin give 1gig for 3kobo with free battery and nokia bag....

would be great cos the fone i use now uses that kinda sim card

I was at computer vil and complain abt same but they told me to file it to make the sim card thinner and definately you will have to cut off that triangle shape in the sim card up to the chip level.

Just waiting patiently for the mobile number portability implementation, na dat time MTN go hear am! I'm talking mass migration from MTN to other networks!

MTN should first improve their internet service / voice call before investing in other areas cos a house without solid foundation is bid fall in no distant time.

Watta gwan fi dem yellow jersey people? Me no send no nano sim all me send is friendly cost and perfect netwk. No yellow sim ina mi fone if me no see no improvement.
