I've been using eSim with my US prepaid plan for months now.And that includes the US. Without the physical SIM I won't be able to upgrade with my cheap T-Mobile $15/mo plan.
There are pro and cons to each.Don’t get the fuss tbh. A SIM card is a relic, if you can do the same thing digitally why not do that instead to save valuable space?
Great for setting up a new prepaid plan, useless for transferring an existing plan to eSIM.T-Mobile literally has an app called Prepaid eSIM.
I came here to talk about the mute switch too. I've been wanting them to axe the mute switch for a few years now. It's silly that it's not on iPads or iPod touches, and there's a simple Control Center toggle for muting, but the iPhone lacks this. I would love to be able to automate the mute when I leave for work, too!Wouldn’t be surprised if they axe lightning at the same time. Maybe the mute switch too (they already did on iPads!).
Fun fact: Apple doesn't allow bad guys don't use iPhones in movies/ TV Shows.Aw, man, what will Hollywood writers do when they can no longer show the bad guy pulling the sim card out of their phone before making their escape?
When they see Apple doing this with the iPhone (just as it is done with the Apple Watch Cellular Models) ... it is either SH*T or get off the pot. eSim *IS* happening... and I am sure they don't want to be left with a chocolate-stained behind... losing all those iPhone Sales.It does make me wonder, though, if this will require Apple to make two versions of each model available. Cellular providers in some countries are still going to insist on iPhones with physical SIM cards.
I used to think the same thing, when I still used cellular on my Lenovo Thinkpad. But I have switched to using the hotspot on my iPhone. For me this is significantly cheaper than yet another cellular contract. I have upgraded my mobile contract to unlimited and am happy to not need the cellular option in any of my laptops.It's time for Macs to have cellular connectivity as a standard feature. Long overdue.
Yes, Apple sure did disrupt the mobile industry by enabling carriers to continue charging ridiculous “upgrade fees” by charging *da-ta-DAA* $30 more for unlocked iPhones.That's assuming that the mobile industry stays the same and doesn't change. Apple has a knack for transforming industries. The move away from physical SIM cards will force the industry to adapt so that existing conveniences don't go extinct.
Maybe their hermanos in Ecuador will get on the ball. They did postpaid the last time I was there but not prepaid.I got a prepaid eSim last week, Movistar in Mexico ?? .
They already did.Good, finally they are going to remove the simcard tray.
One hole less in the frame and if you check the iPhone xrays from the last years, the simcard alone needs 20% of the PCB area.
They will just add a second esim, so dualsim is still possible.
