A friendly reminder that isps do NOT care about you or your digital rights. Always best to buy directly from the OEM rather than from the telecommunications (unless you can't afford it). Do proper research before buying a phone!

I'm curious, do they have phone numbers tied to them?

Edit: a quick internet search confirms my suspicion, they do have a number assigned but are unable to make/receive calls or texts

If they have, it's well hidden. Nowhere on the packaging or Sim tooling does any number appear (I have one for my iPad).

My data SIM has a phone number but Android can't see it, I have to use USSD code to get my number
