wasn't sure where to post this but was hoping to get some expert advice.


I have a 4g verizon SIM card that I have in a jet pack mobile hotspot device.

Can I use this card in a Verizon phone or tablet device? Just curious if this would work.

Thanks in advance!
 
The SIM would probably work in a phone if it's the right size but you'd have to have it re-provisioned to allow voice service. Until you do so, it will probably only give you data.
 
VZW LTE (4G) SIM cards can be moved between VZW LTE devices with no issue or penalty.

I have 3 VZW LTE devices and SIM cards - I alternate one card between an iPhone 5 and an iPad Air regularly. In my small business we alternate VZW LTE SIMs between iPads and Mifis - works perfectly. I've been alternating VZW LTE SIMs between devices for more than two years - it's quite handy for me.

Nice that is great to hear. Not interested in voice but mostly just data between devices.
