This article explains how to replace the SIM card and memory card in a Samsung Galaxy S7 or S7 Edge. How to Replace the SIM and Memory Card in a Samsung Galaxy S7 / S7 Edge The SIM and memory cards are located in the same spot on both devices: the top edge of the phone, which is marked by a thin rectangular slot with a tiny pinhole. Make sure your phone is turned off before you begin. Locate the ejection pin that should have shipped with your phone (if you bought it brand new). If you don't have this small metal key, a straightened paperclip, the back of an earring, or some other pointy object should work just fine. Lifewire / Jason Hidalgo Insert the ejection pin into the pinhole, and push it until the tray pops out. Gently pull on the edges of the tray to remove it. Lifewire / Jason Hidalgo Place the SIM/memory card on the tray, matching the shape of the recessed areas with your card. The name and brand on both cards should be facing up, and the gold part of the SIM card should be facing down. If the tray is empty, the larger one is for the memory card, and the smaller inner recess is for the SIM card. Lifewire / Jason Hidalgo Gently insert the tray back into the phone and push until it is securely in place. Lifewire / Jason Hidalgo How to Switch Phone Carriers Was this page helpful?
