Hello, I am sorry not to answer these questions sooner. My computer crashed ad I am in my local library as the Geek Squad in Best Buy is trying to transfer all my files. I am crazy busy as a musician during HOLIDAY SEASON! ahhh, lol Yes, it turns on Yes, I will include a charger Yes it takes a SIM card It worked properly - it just fell the ground and smashed and it needs a new screen. Since I am at the library, I don't have model number with me, but I will get on again tomorrow and give that information.
