Traveling to the USA - Phone coverage and solutions
score:3
You may want to consider buying or renting a mobile hotspot and just getting a single sim for that. You can google “mobile hotspot rental” and see if it’s cheaper to do so from your home country or while in the USA.
For example, AT&T and T-Mobile both have mobile hotspot plans. Just google around to find the best deal for you. Hotspot plans are often cheaper than voice+data phone plans as you aren’t using any voice.
You can also get a number of prepaid SIMs but you mention having two phones and so it might be cheaper to just get one hotspot.

There are several US companies that rent mobile hotspots. Most charge you for the 4G bandwidth you think you'll use (case in point). Another option is to buy a refurbished hotspot. Straight Talk (ubiquitous and cheap), for instance, has a $10 refurbished hotspot and you buy bandwidth on top of that.
If you're looking to get a SIM, I'd just get their SIM kit and buy a prepaid card (many off-name carriers offer SIM kits). The Huawei P is a GSM phone and there are GSM kits (Straight Talk, for example), provided she's not carrier-locked. She won't get great 4G, but it does support some LTE. Straight Talk again seems to win with some (but not great) LTE for that G5.
My suggestion is to get your girlfriend a SIM and just use the hotspot for your phone.
