Galaxy S7 SIM card slot is identical to that of Galaxy S7 edge. This guide applies to both Galaxy S7 and S7 edge, although Galaxy S7 is mentioned most of the time.

What is Galaxy S7 SIM card size?

Galaxy S7 SIM card allows you to connect to carrier’s and its partner’s mobile network to use voice service and mobile data services.

So, although you can use most features of Galaxy S7 through WiFi without installing SIM card for Galaxy S7 or S7 edge, you cannot use any mobile network related features before you install Galaxy S7 SIM card.

SIM card are always issued by your carrier, NOT Samsung. You should get SIM card for Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge from your carrier (your phone company)

There are 4 different sizes for SIM card for smartphones from big to small:

  1. Full-size SIM. it is hard to find one unless you have a phone that is more than 15 years old.
  2. Mini-SIM. Mini-SIM usually is referred as “big” or “normal” SIM card in some countries. Again, it is seldom used for today’s smartphones.
  3. Micro-SIM. Micro SIM is still the most popular size of SIM card for smartphones. Most middle range and budget smartphones are using micro SIM card.
  4. Nano-SIM. This is the smallest SIM card for smartphone today. It is usually used in most flagship smartphones.

Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge use nano SIM card. In other words, Galaxy S7 SIM card size is nano SIM (4FF).

Here is a list of some popular phones using nano SIM card: Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 edge, Galaxy S6 edge+, Galaxy Note 5, iPhone 6S, iPhone 6S+, iPhone 6, iPhone 6+, iPhone 5, Moto X (including  all generations) and many more. If you have any of these phones, the SIM card is interchangeable with Galaxy S7 or S7 edge.

If you own a Galaxy S5 or Galaxy Note 4 or earlier Samsung devices, micro SIM card is normally used, and therefore, you cannot use the existing SIM card for Galaxy S7.

You should get official nano SIM card from your carrier. Do NOT try to trim the SIM card by yourself.

Galaxy S7 SIM card tray and Galaxy S7 edge SIM card tray

Galaxy S7 SIM card tray has 2 slots as shown below. Slot 2 is bigger than  slot 1.

Slot 1 is always for a nano SIM card.

Slot 2 can always be used for micro SD card.  But for Galaxy S7 dual SIM models, it can also be used for a second nano SIM card. Please note, the dual SIM version of Galaxy S7 and S7 edge are dual standby, not dual active.

What are the differences in Galaxy S7  SIM card slot between Galaxy S7 dual SIM model and single SIM model?

As mentioned in this page, depending on your region, you may get:

  • a dual SIM Galaxy S7 (or Galaxy S7 edge)
  • or a single SIM Galaxy S7 (or S7 edge).

For Galaxy S7 dual SIM model, you can use the Galaxy S7 SIM card slots in 2 ways as shown below:

  • installing 2 SIM cards;
  • or 1 SIM card plus one micro SD card.

It is up to you to decide how to use slot 2.

But you cannot use both SIM card and SD card in slot 2 simultaneously.

Galaxy S7 SIM card slots for dual SIM model of Galaxy S7 and dual SIM model of Galaxy S7 edge

For single SIM version of Galaxy S7 (and S7 edge), you have only one option: slot 1 (smaller one) for SIM card and slot 2 (bigger one) for micro SD card as shown below.

Please check with the vendor whether your Galaxy S7 is dual SIM model or single SIM model before installing SIM card for Galaxy S7 (and S7 edge).

Please note, if you install a SIM card in slot 2, you can NOT install SD card.

installing Galaxy S7 SIM card for dual SIM model of Galaxy S7

For single SIM version of Galaxy S7, slot 2 is for micro SD card, not for SIM card. So, you should install SIM card on slot 1 only as shown below. You should never put SIM card into slot 2.

Step 4: Gently press the SIM card so that it fits into its slot to secure it.

If you fail to secure the SIM card in the slot, the SIM card may fall out of the tray. This may damage the Galaxy S7 SIM card slot.

If this happens, do not pull out the tray forcefully.  You should visit local Samsung service center to fix it.

  7. hello

    I have Samsung s7 edge dual sim smart phone. I have inserted LTE sim in slot 1 and slot 2 is used for calls and sms (though it supports 4g). To my surprise I am not seeing network speed as it should be when two sim’s are inserted. when I am removing sim from slot 2, then the network speed in slot 1 is showing very good speed. I just want to understand if the network speed has to be high though the mobile is dual sim, only one sim should be used? coz I am seeing the same in practice. one more question please, if I am using LTE sim in slot 2 and option LTE/4G/3G is selected then also the network speed is worst. kindly help and advice, I want to use LTE sim in slot 1 with high speed and sim 2 only for calls or sms not with data.

  9. I am currently studying abroad in italy and am looking to get a sim card here. I have the Samsung s7 edge. I am wondering are all of my apps, messages, and contacts stored on my sim card? And if I remove it would that cause any problems? Also if they are stored on there how do I back everything up?

    Reply

    • You should always back up the phone.

      Apps are always saved on the phone.

      Messages are unlikely saved on the SIM card.

      Contacts may be saved in SIM card. For example, your carrier’s numbers for voicemail or support are usually saved in SIM card. For your contacts, it’s very likely they are saved either on the phone or under your Google account. You can copy those saved in the phone to your Google account so that you can access them on any devices. Start Contacts app, tap More (near top right), tap Settings, tap contacts to display. Now, you can check which are saved in SIM card, which are on phone storage. Anyway, make a backup. It’s recommended to save contacts under your Google account.

  13. I have a Galaxy S7 Edge that I am not happy with. If I swapped with a Galaxy S7 owner would I be able to merely swap SIM cards and have the phones operate normally or would each of us require a new SIM card?

    I do not like the edge functions nor the sensitivity of this phone when handling it.

  14. Is it possible to use a dual sim tray in a single sim phone to operate two sims? Is the hardware in the phone itself to operate dual sim and just the tray is different, or is there a difference in the phone hardware also?

    If there’s a difference in the phone hardware, do all galaxy s7’s operate on all the listed frequencies and bands on the manufacturers page or are they installed based on region?

  20. Hi all

    I appreciate any help regarding this issue I am having with my dual sim phone. It was working fine for a few months but one day SIM#1 which is my main number stopped Connecting to the network. I tried almost all my options and now I am lost without help 🙁

    This is the phone I am having problems with:
    Samsung Galaxy S7 edge duos
    Model#: SM-G935FD

    These are the Canadian Networks I am using:
    SIM CARD #1: Telus
    SIM CARD #2: Fido

    1) When I swipe my finger down from top to bottom of the screen it shows “emergency calls only | Fido” on the bottom where usually the name of the carrier is displayed. It used to say: “TELUS | Fido”.

    2) When I do a Manual Network Check under Network Operators for SIM#1 it shows Telus, EXT, Bell and WIND. But when I click Telus its shows “Registering on Telus” maybe 1/10 of a second before it disappears and gives me a message on the bottom of the screen in grey saying “Unable to connect. Try later”. I already tried the ” automatic network check”; not working either.

    3) Already switched the SIM around to check the SIM slots but only SIM#1 is not working properly. It finds it under the network check but is unable to connect. I have no issue with SIM#2; at least not yet. Even tried a Rogers SIM on SIM#1 but with no luck.

    4) When I go to Settings > SIM card manager; it shows both numbers in color and they are not greyed out; so therefore I assume it is picking up both of the Networks.

    5) When I click on Dual SIM always on to Receive calls from both SIM cards even during calls and switch on the “on button” it says “Updating settings”. After several minutes with no luck I get the following message:

    FAILED

    [SIM card 1]
    Call forwarding: Failed
    Call waiting: Failed

    [SIM card 2]
    Call forwarding: Failed
    Call waiting: Enabled

    6) I have Factory Reset the phone to it’s original state when I bought it, but again no luck.

    I did not update the phone before the crash. When I run out of options; I did the update but it also didn’t help.

    Thank you for taking your time and reading about my problem

  21. Hi, I am still struggling with my dual SIM phone, but it does seem to be related to poor reception in this area, I was at an airport recently and finally both SIM’s showed with four bars. I was looking at the Phones/Status part of settings as you suggested above and the SIM card status shows as Network not available, Signal strength not available, my phone number not available! Now this is the odd bit. Why does it not know what number the Nano SIM is? It also only appears to show the information for one of the SIMS, which will it be showing? The more I look the more it is as though there is a setting that I have missed for the dual SIMness of the phone, yet in a high signal area both do seem to show. Do you think it is the phone or the signal strength? Many thanks and your previous answer was appreciated

  22. Hi!
    My S7 Edge dual SIM always move data connection to one of the SIMS ignoring my settings. I set everything (data, sms and data) to SIM1 letting SIM2 in standby, but always it change data to SIM2.
    If I swap SIMs, same behavior occur.
    Do you know if this is an expected behavior or some king of bug?
    Thanks!

  23. I have a newly bought unlocked Samsung Galaxy s7 but branded with Vodacom/Vodafone. I live in Botswana which is near South Africa.

  24. I live in one country and work in another; therefore, travel daily between countries. Each country has separate phone carriers. I need phone and text operational from each country (i.e. phone roaming is ok) and want to have network data from the country where I am currently located (i.e. no data roaming).

    Can the S7 handle this swap automatically?

  30. Hi, I have a dual sim Samsung galaxy S7, and have changed both my full sized sims on Virgin (in an old Nokia E63 and a Samsung S3 Mini respectively) to Nano sims for the new phone so I won’t need to carry two phones anymore. I never used to have reception problems with the old SIMS and phones. Since changing to the Nano sims (same numbers and still on Virgin) I have virtually non-existent mobile signals on both sims in two locations (100 miles apart), where I used to have good reception on both. Obviously I am beyond the point of no return and need to make this work. Two questions – 1. could the two SIMS interfere with each other or could there be another reason why I don’t get good reception? 2. I have one SIM which has a better data package on it (they both take calls). Is there a preferred slot for the data SIM or do they both work the same if I change them in the settings? i.e. should I have the 2G/3G reception data SIM in slot one and the 2G only SIM in slot 2 or does it not matter? Many thanks

  31. Thanks for the information and resources. I have the S7 Fd and I am having problems with dual Sim Cards you really helped me to understand the situation. I am in my 30 day money back guarantee but I think I will keep the phone anyway. I have the S7 unlocked GSM international version. Your post comments help me to understand why I am having Sim Cards problems. I guess I should go back to 2 phones.

  34. Hi;
    I read the posts about the Samsung 7. I’m looking to upgrade from the Samsung 6. I just wanted to clarify my understanding of the posts and the dual sim cards.
    On the Samsung 7 you can change Sim cards to another carry – i.e. from a US sim card and carrier to a Spanish sim card and carrier. We did this with the Samsung 6 and it worked great. I initially heard that you could not access the sim card in the 7 since the phone is water proof. In reading the posts it appears you can access the sim card in the 7.
    Further, it looks like there are dual sim cards. Am I understanding correctly that you could keep your US/carrier sim card in slot 1 and insert another sim card in slot 2 such as a Spanish sim card/carrier? Changing from sim card 1 or 2 is a manner of changing the setup for sim cards?
    Thanks in advance for any follow up.
    Tom

    I want to use my “Spanish home SIM card” in slot 2 and have from this sim my daily calls, emails and Internet, while in my home country Spain.
    In slot 1 I want my Hong Kong SIM card for incoming calls only, that’s possible I presume.

    When traveling I want to use a prepaid local sim for both data and calls in slot 1.
    while in slot 2, my home sim remains without data roaming, only for incoming “home” calls, is that possible.
    —
    What I understand you can not use the sd card up to 200 Gb, when using 2 sims, but in the advertisements you see double sim, with extra memory up to 200 Gb.
    Where to put the ad card ??

  45. Do you have an explanation for this by any chance? I’m in a similar position, I want to use data on sim 1 + voice/sms on sim 2.

    “So I purchased the SM-930F on ebay, I ended up with the FD model. So first question there, I couldn’t see any difference between the F and FD in the specs I looked up other than the hardware allowing an additional SIM. Is there any reason why I should be concerned about an FD over an F?

    Second question; I checked the frequencies before I purchased and I should get LTE on the rogers network however I only get 3g and HSDPA+ or 4g occasionally but rarely. Why am I not getting LTE?

    LTE Bands

    Thanks!

    Reply

    • Don’t just read the short model number. It just indicates the main hardware configurations. In different regions, the firmware, features and LTE bands can be substantially different. Yes, FD means dual SIM.

      In most regions, 4G means LTE. Of course, in a few regions, it means H+. But this is defined by firmware on the phone, not the carrier’s network. So, you need check SIM status in settings – about phone – status to find out the actual network type. You also can check the corresponding user manual to find out the convention for the said phone.

      For LTE bands, although the phone can support most of them, the firmware on the phone may disable most of them depending on the region where the phone is being sold.

      I would recommend you to buy phones from local distributor.

  48. Hi,

    After reading through your post and all the comments, I am still confused with the dual-sim feature. My understanding is that since Galaxy S7 is dual-standby, there is only one sim operating at a given time. For example, if I am talking on the phone with Sim 1, my Sim 2 will not be active hence I cannot receive any phone call or txt message on Sim 2. Is this right? Same thing happens if I am surfing web (4G) with Sim 1? Only dual-active has 2 sims active all the time? I have one main sim card (calls/messages/4G) and the other one is oversea sim card and only to receive calls/messages.

    Thank you.

  60. I’ve been carrying two phones for years, a work phone and a personal phone. Hearing this one has the dual SIM option is exciting but after reading your comments I’m not sure it’s going to work the way I’d like it to. My carriers are Sprint and Verizon in the US. First question: are the dual-sim models only GSM versions of the handsets? I.E. AT&T and T-Mobile? Second question, (which is null and void if the first question is a yes!) : I just read your reply about the second Sim only using 2G voice. Does that mean that I can’t use each SIM the same and switch between the two for all services?

Most pictures and content on card do not show or show as corrupted. Viewing content on laptop from card in phone shows them fine. All files are from a card that was on my S4. I loaded music and it disappeared but card is fuller. Wont allow me to delete the bad filea from laptop, states they are protected…. help! Lol…is it the phone or the card that is most likely my issue. I have formatted the card 2x and reloaded data. Some folders if i load 200 files, only show 100 files… so weird and frustrating.
