The eSIM is a new innovative technology that provides mobile connectivity from a digital perspective, that’s why so many people are replacing the traditional SIM card with it, generally through cell phon\e carriers. Some reasons why this is happening are the comfort of knowing that we won’t lose our eSIM or break it since they are completely virtual.
