A micro SIM is like a standard SIM, only with less plastic around the chip, so turning one into t'other is a simple hack -- literally. Before we start, we should point out that you trim your SIM at your own risk. We offer no guarantee that your cut-down SIM will work, or that your network will be particularly pleased about it.

On the left is a kosher micro SIM, in this case provided by Vodafone. The card in the middle is our first go at creating a micro SIM. It's a little small, but works fine. The SIM on the right doesn't work at all, because we cut closely around the chip and it's too small. Tired of paying Apple big bucks for extra storage when Android users get to enjoy an SD card slot? Here how you can add a microSD card slot to your iPhone or iPad. Must read : iOS Pro tips and tricks. All you need is Lexar's tiny microSD reader for Lightning devices , which along with free Lexar Mobile Manager app will allow you to move photos and video between your iPhone of iPad and a microSD card.
This allows you to add up to gigabytes of storage at a fraction of the cost of what Apple charges for storage. You can also use the microSD card reader to move photos and videos from other cameras to your iPhone or iPad for editing and upload to the web.
Maybe not as good as having a built-in microSD card slot, but it's infinitely better than not having it. We'd recommend an adapter for any iPhone owners who may want to use other handsets occasionally while retaining their phone number.
