How many contacts can you save in a SIM card?
Welcome to Blackview blog. Hope the guide helps.
The number of contacts you can save on a SIM card depends on the type of SIM card and the amount of memory it has. Typically, older SIM cards could store between 100 and 250 contacts. Each contact was limited to a name and a single phone number, often with limitations on the length of the name. Modern SIM cards typically also have limited storage capacity for contacts, often around 250 to 500 contacts. However, the exact number can vary depending on the SIM card type and the specific mobile carrier.
Modern SIM cards, however, are generally used less for storing contacts because smartphones have moved to storing contacts in the device’s internal memory or in cloud services (like Google Contacts or iCloud). These modern methods allow for much more detailed contact information and a far greater number of contacts than the SIM card can accommodate.
If you are using a modern smartphone (including rugged phone), it's more common to store contacts directly in the phone or sync them with a cloud service, which removes the limitations imposed by the SIM card’s storage capacity.
