The global mobile technology trend is now shifting towards total digitalization, one of which is through the adoption of eSIM (embedded Subscriber Identity Module). Unlike conventional physical SIM cards, an eSIM is a subscriber identity module permanently embedded within the hardware of smartphones and other smart devices.
The main advantage of using eSIM lies in its efficiency and flexibility for users. Without the hassle of inserting or removing physical cards from the phone slot, users can switch operators or add new numbers digitally. The activation process is relatively simple, requiring only a QR code scan or the input of an activation code officially issued by the mobile service provider.
In addition to operational ease, integrating eSIM into devices is believed to improve security factors and physical space efficiency inside the phone. This technology is a solution for users who want thinner devices or space for other crucial components. However, this feature can only be accessed by devices whose specifications have supported eSIM technology from the start of production.
