Will Multiple eSIMs in iPhone 15 Series Be the Trend?

Did you know that? It is possible to store more than one eSIM on your smartphone. When you travel, having multiple eSIMs on your device has plenty of advantages and gives you even more freedom and flexibility. So today we are gonna show more details about the eSIM on your cellphone.

Ready to dive in? Here we go!

eSIM?

An eSIM, or embedded SIM, is a digital SIM technology that enables you to activate a cellular plan from your carrier directly from your device, without having to use a physical SIM.

In the past, changing your carrier or data plan required purchasing a new physical SIM card. To get a new SIM, it typically involves contacting your carrier, standing in line, or waiting for one to arrive by mail. Now it can be done just within a few clicks on your screen.

Use an eSIM With a SIM Card?

Well, that all depends. You can use both an eSIM and a physical SIM card simultaneously, provided you have a compatible device that supports Dual SIM, such as an iPhone XS or later. This compatibility allows one device to have two active SIMs – one physical and one eSIM.

Here are some tips for using an eSIM together with a physical SIM for you:

• Label your SIMs

To differentiate between your physical SIM and your eSIM, label them accordingly on your device. This will help you identify which SIM you are using for calls, messages, and data usage.

• Set default SIMs

Configure your device to use a specific eSIM/SIM as the default for making calls, and sending messages, and the other for using mobile data.

Go to "* *settings* " in the SIM card or " *network settings*** "of your device.

• Manage incoming calls and messages

To set how you want your device to handle incoming calls and messages, you can choose to receive them on both eSIM/SIMs simultaneously or specify a preferred one.

• Manage data usage

Decide which eSIM/SIM you want for cellular data and set it as the default for internet connectivity. You can also manually switch between eSIMs/SIMs depending on the network signal.

If you are buzzing around different network coverage countries, we recommend choosing an eSIM for the network and original SIMs for calls and messages* *(given that the eSIM only provides data plan services)*** to avoid unnecessary fares.
