Yes, we have all loved physical sims for so many ears.

Needed to hear this because I have a physical sim and I’m not a fan of eSIM just yet for those reasons.

Some benefits of eSIM are theft prevention and water resistance.

Don't know what is going to happen when the e-sim becomes the standard and what the influence on the carriers. I am using the same Physical SIM for 14 years and is passed through 2 dumb and 5 smart devices. It had seen Windows Phone, Symbian, some proprietary Motorola OS and many Android versions. It was cut from mini to micro to nano and somehow still works.

I’ve switched over to eSIM when I got the 14PM. It was definitely a smooth transition for me. I’m from uk and the qr codes are free from the carrier and activation was almost instant. But I got it for the security of not having my sim taken out if my phone got stolen.

That’s the ONLY reason I didn’t trade in my iPhone 13 Pro bcuz the 14’s are e sim(in the U.S.) and I don’t always use an iPhone, I have a pixel 7 and 7 pro and think it would be a hassle to keep transferring the number

@blixtenmcdave2077 6 ай бұрын

If you get e-sim and travel to another country, do the carriers in that country have to support e-sim as well? Or can you use your phone as usual?

@SupltsAlex 11 ай бұрын

Idk about all of you but my carrier is W. eSim and physical sims are the same here, from coverage (available in every country) to prices. Exactly the same.

@Flop666 2 ай бұрын

lmao are you dumb? it's not about plan or coverage, it's about transfering that eSIM to another for example. in my country you can transfer eSIM only with one of three carriers.

I just found out my s22 ultra is compatible. It would be a shame if they didn't include it with the S23, if I wanted to upgrade one day. Go into settings>connections, then look in sim manager, it sill show you.

Switched to an iPhone with an esim. Device ended up being defective. Wasn't allowed to switch back to my old sim. Had to wait 3 days for a new sim to come in so I could switch back to my old device. Was a very frustrating process.

Should have went to a store directly. They can give you a new sim card and activate with your existing number on the same day

Well, isn't it typical of Apple to introduce another phone with eSIM technology? Whether we like it or not, it's like they're on a mission to push us into the future. Who cares if the rest of the world needs to be fully prepared for this technological marvel? Apple knows best, right? Even more amusing is that while they claim eSIMs are the future, they conveniently keep selling iPhone 15 Plus and Pro models with suitable old-fashioned SIM card trays in select countries. It's almost as if they're hedging their bets or maximizing profits. Yet there are at least 14 counties where you can purchase your iPhone 14 or 15 with a sim card tray. Hmm, how ironic. Could Apple's cozy relationship with the big three U.S. carriers - AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon - have something to do with this decision? After all, why cut off the revenue stream from those sweet, lucrative carrier partnerships when you can have your eSIM and your traditional SIM, too? It's all about the bottom line, folks. Welcome to the Apple reality distortion field, where innovation and profit margins go hand in hand
