I personally wouldn't recommend it unless you have a specific reason such as trying to free up your physical sim slot for another line. I like the flexibility of being able to move my physical sim card between phones without having to pay additional fees or even for having to rely on my carrier. I also like to leave my esim slot free for travel esim's.

You can can switch to eSIM, by opening PM app, go to Account, purchase SIM Card, select eSIM, it will cost $5, before doing that , you need to make sure that your phone is eSIM compatible, once you active the eSIM, your regular SIM will be deactivated and no longer be used

@Dyboypogi you can as long as your phone supports.  Download PM app and go to Account page, Buy sim card and choose eSIM. But you need to pay $5 for switching to esim.

For functionality, esim and physical sim are the same.  If you are not trying to free up the physical sim slot, I would hold on until you really need it.

you sure can..as long as your cellphone is esim compliant. Log in to the PM app to order one.
