How do I use cellular data on my Acer Swift 7?
Some Swift 7 models support 4G LTE connections to allow you to stay connected to the internet when a LAN or wireless connection is not available.* To get started, just insert a nano SIM card in your product to use a data plan from your mobile carrier. You will need to make sure your mobile carrier uses a supported 4G LTE band.
Your Swift 7 also includes an electronic SIM (eSIM) that you can use for international data through the mobile carrier Ubigi.** Your eSIM ships with a Ubigi profile that is provisioned with up to 1 GB of free data valid for one month in 48 countries. Additional data plans can be easily purchased as needed through the Mobile Plans application while travelling around the world.
