Post subject:  Micro or Regular Size SIM

Hi all,

I am bringing two phones with me. Both are unlocked Android phones but my Galaxy S4 uses a micro SIM and the Infuse uses the regular size SIM. Do they sell both size SIM at the aiport and is the Kiosik open 24x7?

I have read in another thread that new SIM will take care of setting the new APN for Costa Rica and that seller of the SIM does not have to change any settings on the phone.

Which company would you recommend farther away from the city, Playa Hermosa etc. I am looking for good data speeds and call quality.

They will cut a standard sim to fit your phone(s) at the kiosk. If you want the same number for both, you should buy a sim adaptor from Amazon. It will make the micro fit any sim size phone requires.

Don't assume that the carrier network will automatically set the APN for internet. My iPhone did it automatically but my Android had to be manually set by my carrier. Either way, they can set it up at the kiosk.

And do you have to reset an android again when you return to the US or Canada or wherever home is?

I gather resenting the APNs will be needed and not factory resetting the Android?
