To insert the SIM card into your Meizu M5 Note, initially find the slot that is usually on the side of the mobile phone. It is rather easy to spot it because there is often a small hole next to it. When you have found it, you will have to insert a pointed object into the small hole next to the slot. As an example, you can use a paper clip to do so. By pushing into the hole, the SIM card rack should come out. You must after that remove the rack from the slot. Simply insert the SIM card into this rack and re-insert it into your Meizu M5 Note.

The different types of SIM cards
There are 3 different types of SIM cards. Indeed, these three types differ according to their size. We so find:
- The SIM card: which is of standard size.
- The Micro SIM card: that is smaller than the standard size.
- The Nano SIM card: which is really extremely small. The chip covers nearly the entire surface.
In case you dont have the proper SIM card for your Meizu M5 Note, you can ask your operator for a different one. There are also adapters that could solve compatibility issues. At last, when you have a standard SIM card, it might be cut to make it into Micro SIM or Nano SIM. At your peril.
