[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1932044, member: 396914"] eSIM is not an "it." eSIM is a little bit of memory that can hold the data that would be on a SIM card. The idea behind it is to get away from having to have that stupid little card for your phone to work. Theoretically, your cellular carrier can then let you "create" a SIM for an account with them by simply scanning an appropriate QR code they can email to you. Gets you online immediately instead of having to wait for the physical SIM to arrive in the mail. One use of an eSIM is that if you travel internationally and want a local number where you go, you can put your "home" account in the eSIM, then get a SIM for whatever country you visit for that local number (probably Pay-As-You-Go, or PAYG).
