This blog is mainly for those users who are new to YoloBox/YoloBox Pro and want to use the 4G SIM card as the network connection. Read on to know how to use it properly and how to troubleshoot when the issue occurs.
What Sim card does YoloBox/YoloBox Pro support?
- YoloBox supports micro Sim cards while YoloBox Pro supports nano Sim cards
- Take the US market as an example. Before launching to the market, we tested major operators like T-Mobile/Verizon/AT&T/Mint Mobile which is all working fine. Please make sure your SIM Cards include data, text and calls. SIM cards that are used for tablets only don’t work on YoloBox/YoloBox Pro.

This is one of the questions that we get most asked about. However, in most cases, they are just user errors.
Before launching YoloBox to the market, we tested with major telecommunication carriers in our major market. They are all working fine as long as:
- SIM cards should include texts and calls(not a pure data plan)
2. SIM cards should be operated and inserted correctly
3. The carriers should be in the right frequency band

4. Try activating your SIM card on another device like your phone if the IMEI code (a 15-digital number which you can find on the “Account” screen > “About Device”) is not shown on YoloBox.
5. If No.4 won’t work, provide your IMEI code to your local mobile telecom carrier to check.
6. Reset the internet & consult your local carriers if necessary
