What exactly is e-SIM?
E-SIM is a virtual or electronic SIM card. With the advent of e-SIM, there is no longer a need to physically utilize a SIM card as there is currently.
This necessitates the use of an e-SIM-capable phone. It may be used for a variety of tasks, including making calls and accessing data.
After utilizing e-SIM, there is no need to change the SIM card. Aside from mobile phones, e-SIM may be utilized on a variety of other devices such as smartwatches and wearable gadgets.
According to Telecom, all existing customers may utilize e-SIM, and new users can simply obtain e-SIM.
