If you want to use your Google Pixel to its full potential, you first need to insert the SIM card. We show you which SIM card you need for the Pixel 6 and all other Pixels.
SIM card for the Google Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro and Pixel 6a – you’ll need these
Both the Google Pixel 6 and the Google Pixel 6 Pro and Google Pixel 6a require a nano SIM card. This is easy to distinguish from the other SIM cards because it is the smallest of all. It virtually only consists of the small chip.
- If you have previously used a SIM card in a larger format, you can request a new SIM card from your mobile phone provider. As a rule, the SIM card is free of charge and your number will not change.
- Alternatively, you can also cut the nano-SIM to size yourself. To do this, use this Nano SIM template, which you can download from us free of charge.
Google Pixel 6/6Pro/6a: How to insert the SIM card
If you already have the nano SIM, you can insert the SIM card directly. You do not need to switch off the Google Pixel 6 to do this.
- The slot for the SIM card is located on the lower left side of the Google Pixel.
- Use the supplied pin, a paper clip or a pin to open the slot for the SIM card. To do this, press the pin into the small hole next to the SIM card slot.
- Remove the holder for the SIM card and insert the SIM card. The chip of the SIM card is pointing towards the display.
- Push the holder back in carefully, should the SIM card be recognised directly.
- You will now be asked to unlock the SIM card with the PIN. You can then use the SIM card in the Google Pixel 6.
