eSIM is an embedded or integrated SIM card and a substitute for the physical and plastic SIM we all know about. Unlike the physical SIM, you do not need to insert the eSIM into your phone as it is already integrated into your device from the start.

Now having this eSIM already in your device, all you have to do is simply activate the eSIM with your account profile and boom! You are set to enjoy all the services you originally would with a physical SIM.

Cool right?
