WHAT IS AN E SIMWHAT IS AN E SIM
An eSIM is a digital version of a standard physical SIM card. Therefore instead of physically inserting your SIM card in your phone, with an eSIM you simply need to scan a QR code to install it on your phone, which makes a travel eSIM even more convenient when traveling abroad as you do not need to worry about loosing your main sim.
Most new phones from manufacturer like iPhone, Samsung and Google are eSIM enabled and some even go as far as totally removing the SIM card slot in order to be eSIM only such as the latest generation of iPhone 14. This makes your international travel easier as you don’t need to purchase a local SIM card on arrival and you simply need to purchase a travel eSIM, or global eSIM prior to your trip abroad and just activate it when you land and you are online in a matter of seconds.
