Esim

What does it mean 

E sim

@Jurri  Going to guess electronic sim (eSIM ) basically eliminates the need for a physical SIM card . And if your phone supports it you can install it on your phone . But I prefer physical sim for many reasons over eSIM . Yet to be given a good reason for eSIM . To me it’s just a money grab each time you want to change devices . And PM won’t allow you to switch phones on eSIM at this time . Just new activations . So I’d just forget eSIM for now until we all are forced in it . Just my .02 cents

@Jurri ESim is an electronic SIM added to compatible phones through a QR code or manually using server address. It is pretty much a digital SIM. If you add eSIM to your phone, you can have another line added using a physical sim and use two numbers at the same time.
