In everyday life, there are more and more new things, developments, and technologies that are being introduced into our lives to make it easier and simpler. For example, many people are already in full swing using artificial intelligence for their work, new smartphones are replacing professional cameras, and with the new features in our smartphones, everyone can find any information and share it instantly. These are not all the features that are available nowadays, for example, engineers and big smartphone companies have already worked on creating a convenient and eco-friendly sim card, and as a result they invented esim.
What is esim?
Esim is a sim card that sits inside the device, it is sealed inside the motherboard and does not come out of the smartphone or tablet. It performs the same functions as a regular SIM card: esim can store number data, esim data, and up to five phone numbers can be stored on one esim.
Esim also has a number of advantages over a regular physical SIM card:
- Simplicity of registration. To get a virtual SIM card, you need to download a specialised application, install it on your smartphone and register. Registration takes about five minutes and is completed in the settings of the smartphone. In the same application, we can choose the tariff and conditions of SIM card usage. For registration of a SIM card, you do not need to go to the office of the mobile operator.
- Convenience of use abroad. You can connect a virtual card not only to the local operator, but also to purchase a card of another country. This way you can replace such a service as roaming or save yourself from the need to buy a local operator’s card in another country. The cost of a virtual card is much lower than roaming.
- The cost of virtual sim card. The tariffs for esim are much lower than local operator SIM cards abroad and also, sometimes, less than the cost of your country’s SIM card. Provided that the features to use are maintained.
- Eco-friendliness of esim. Virtual sim cards are more environmentally friendly, because you don’t throw it away after use. Ordinary SIM cards after disposal go through a very long, difficult and expensive process of recycling, which is not always profitable, because the physical SIM card consists of an alloy of different metals, which require different methods of recycling.
To summarise, a virtual SIM card is a convenient invention that allows users to stay mobile and save money both when connected in your country and when used abroad. In addition, a virtual sim card has other advantages, including speed and ease of connection. This technology can help you in your everyday life to facilitate communication with friends and family, so you should definitely try it. However, it is worth remembering that a virtual sim card also has its drawbacks, for example, not all smartphones and other devices have an esim chip yet, so check if your smartphone or tablet has this option before installing the app.
