Guide to Activating eSIM on Your Smartphone
What is eSIM?
ESIM stands for "embedded SIM" or "eSIM", which is a type of SIM card that is embedded directly into a device, such as a smartphone or tablet. Unlike traditional SIM cards that can be removed and replaced, an eSIM is permanently built into the device and cannot be physically removed.
With an eSIM, users can activate cellular service on their device without having to physically insert a SIM card. This can be especially convenient for users who frequently switch between carriers or travel internationally, as they can simply switch between carriers or add new service plans directly from their device, without having to obtain a physical SIM card.
