In brief, eSIM is a visual SIM card and usually expensive phones support this new technology. It is a cool technology as it enables you to have more phone cards and you can easily switch them from your phone. But I don't have such an advanced phone and I figured a way to make it work. I bought a SIM card reader and a programmable blank SIM card. I used a software to scan the eSIM barcode and it just wrote the eSIM to a SIM card. Normally a simple SIM card can store several eSIM and an expensive one can store much more. That's enough for me and I insert this SIM card to my phone and I can easily enjoy using eSIM

That's very clever to my way of thinking. There is no way I could do that.

My phone is not so advanced, but I can have two physical SIM cards in it.

I'm still using old technology so eSIM won't work on my phone.

My phone is also old, but it works well. As long as your phone can work with sim card, it can work.

Wow that was cool. My sister bought a 5G device that is why she is enjoying an unli 5G internet.

5G connection charges high here, this is why I still use my 4G connection and I don't care even if my phone can work with 5G connection

I have been using an eSim for years. I just find it more convenient.
