An eSIM is an electronic SIM card. Unlike the standard physical SIM card we use for our cell phones, which come in different SIM sizes, the eSIM is built into your device and you can't remove it. Many cell phones available in the U.S. are now compatible with eSIMs, including the iPhone 14, Samsung Galaxy S23, and the Google Pixel 7. Curious as to how exactly eSIMs work? You've come to the right place.

Small correction - you can have more than one esim installed but only one esim can be active - I have had 2 or 3 esims in my iPhone at the same time along with a physical sim.

I remember when Verizon and Sprint were stubborn and didn't use a sim card. Verizon used the IMEI number to program the phone to the Network

How many esima can you add on to your phone. And can your esim have separate phone number

@userwest626 Год назад

my questions is does esim need phone support network bands? iphone as all global bands and esim, moto edge 5g only have few bands. then esim data will only support only bands?

@313astrologytv-7 Год назад

Great video. Hey there, physical sim cards are electronic. All it is is like a CPU meets motherboard. This is software and not hardware, so embedded is a more accurate term.

When moving to a new carrier, can you keep your original phone number from the original carrier on a physical SIM to be able to use it on an eSIM? My phone is unlocked.

If I want to have one phone with 2 phone numbers is this a solution? I have my main line and a business line. I have 2 iphones now but would really like to carry just one phone. Is this a decent solution or am I in for trouble?

How can I jailbreak my esim on my AT&T 14 promax that isnt paid off. Im still paying on the phone but left the carrier. I want to use my iphone again and not have to pay for another 14 or now 15 series. Please help!!!

I have two Android phones. Can I keep my physical Sim on one phone and have an esim on the other, that way, whatever phone I want to use that day, I don't have to be switching my physical Sim every time?

@DallasPhool 2 года назад

I recommend using a normal sim for your main number and an eSim for roaming. Your main carrier understands physical sims and only few understand or support eSims. For roaming always use an online source without contract so you can switch around depending on where you are roaming.

@MalikSmith774 2 года назад

Do you think it would make sense to use the physical SIM for personal and the eSIM for business?

@Claro1993 Год назад

I think it’s the other way around IMO eSim is best for your main carrier while a normal sim is best for roaming as local carriers from tourist destinations would have more affordable data plans and a big chance would be in a SIM card.

@jkirk1626 Год назад

@@Claro1993 you're completely right. Your home number as your eSIM is best. Land at a a foreign airport and pop in the foreign physical sim card without worrying about your eSIM with your home number.

@jkirk1626 Год назад

Totally backwards mate.

@Itsme-vo4fx Месяц назад

I have a physical sim in my iPhone which I use in my country. However, if I want to travel to another country and not use my home country plan to save roaming fees, I need to purchase a sim for the country that I’m visiting. The problem is that it’s almost impossible to find an eSIM that has a data AND call plan included. When inquire, I’m told that eSIM are for data and that I can make calls through apps like FaceTime. I just want to have a travel plan identical to my home country through an eSIM. Why aren’t all eSIM, purchased for a limited time while traveling, not data AND call compatible?

I have US Mobile & my options are eSIM, eSIM or eSIM. Which one should I choose??? 🤨🤨🤨

@brockwillis1979 10 месяцев назад

what if someone has an Iphone 12 using US Mobile (esim) and they have an Iphone 14 using Mint Mobile (esim), and the person wants to just transfer the Mint line to the iphone 12, and the US mobile like to the Iphone 14. How would this be done?

@evenslouis-charles2211 Год назад

The E in e-SIM couldn't stand for "electronic" because the physical SIM is also electronic. . An "electronic" is anything that requires electric current (AC or DC) to function. Your phone, your TV, your computer, microwave, curling iron are all electronic devices.

@Claro1993 Год назад

the e in eSIM stands for embedded though😂.

@organicremedy357 5 месяцев назад

Does eSim give you a phone number or just data?

@VictorBeltran1309 2 года назад

Embeded SIM makes much more sense to what an eSIM is. A SIM is also a piece of electronics, so it wouldn't make any sense to call "electronic" to an eSIM if both work inside the phone electronics.

@jameslowry1 Год назад

The only thing I don't like about eSIM is I would have to contact my carrier whenever I want to change my phone but I would have to do that anyway whenever I want to change my service plan so would make little difference to me because I wouldn't be changing my service plan without changing my phone

@Maximus0995 2 года назад

Does someone knows what happens when changing carrier?? Because I have a carrier with an esim and I am changing to another carrier with esim also...does the new carrier has to send me a new QR code for register on my phone or it changes the carrier automatically??

@71_button Год назад

I changed from Visible to US Mobile. When I ported, the new eSIM downloaded & activated. I dented the old eSIM.

@harrycee656 4 месяца назад

Electronic implied since SIM, eSIM, iSIM are all electronic in nature. Embedded make more sense, especially to technical people. Integrated makes sense for iSIM.

@felixkommey2505 3 месяца назад

So per my understanding, an Esim makes moving from one network to another easy. What if there is no network connection at all at a location. Because there are places in the world with no connectivity at all.

the whole phone is electronic. Physical sim vs Embedded (inside phone) sim.

@zenwave5272 Год назад

vSIM ! The physical card is also 1. Electronic, 2. Embedded (mechanically)… Virtual SIM would be the most logical name for this new magic! (also - why are so many ‘eSIM’ plans - for Europe at least - just for data and not voice?) Thanks!

Because nowadays you can make a lot of calls via VOIP, i.e. using data only.

@zenwave5272 Год назад

@@ivegas1000 Yes, but I think you’re missing the point about the “e” as opposed to “v”. Everything on the phone is “e” - electronic… but the “eSIM” is in reality, a virtual (as opposed to physical) SIM card - that’s why I think vSIM would be a better name (not that it matters - never gonna happen).

@ivegas1000 Год назад

@@zenwave5272 I was addressing your comment why in Europe there are more data SIMs than voice SIMS. I TRAVEL plenty international, can't remember the last time I use a voice call SIM. It's not necessary in my book. I make lots of call using just data. No phone number even needed.
