Basically esims are more convenient, great. Why are they not optional? Why can't phones support both types of SIM?


A lot of phones do, eg most Samsungs since the S20 have physical and eSIM.

There's also an interesting product from https://esim.me/ that emulates the functionality of an esim on a physical sim card, and lets you switch between eSIMS via their app even on older phones like the galaxy S8.


Thank you, I didn't expect my original comment to get attention, I just wanted a healthy discussion and education on things I don't know.
