Mobile dongle SIM vs mobile data SIM

[countryman99]

I'm confused by the pricing re mobile data.  If I buy a dongle data SIM then I get no minutes or texts.  But if I buy a normal SIM and stick it in my phone, I can get minutes and texts included and the price is cheaper!   So that suggests to me that I get a normal mobile SIM and just stick itin my dongle.

Or am I missing something ?

@countryman99 : No, you're not! You may use a phone SIM in a mobile router at probably a cheaper price. Of course you won't be able to make calls from it.
