Do you use an eSIM with your smartphone?
Yes I do in the uk with my iPhone 13 Pro
I have a unlocked Z Fold 4 and only a few prepaid carriers support in the US Android eSim so Im kinda screwed
This works only in 🇺🇸?
I'm an android user
Yes i do.
When setting up an eSim from an existing phone with a nano SIM, it is critical that you set up your wifi on your new phone first and that both phones have access to the same network.
😅
the color purple looks so nice, still waiting for my iphone 14 pro max :) ,My Pitaka case came before the phone arrives ... Great job, this was super helpful!
Nice, that's very easy, a lot of reviews were anxious about the esim but its looks pretty simple even for travelling.
Thank you for this, hopefully people will calm down after seeing this.
Carriers: time to hire a ton of customer service reps because the phone calls to assist with eSim setup will be 10X what they are now. And then more calls when people want to swap back to their Android and then back to their iPhone and on and on. Literally nothing is easier than swapping a physical sim card from one phone to another.
Yeah that's my concern
Oh man all the 50+ year olds are gonna be hounding. I feel for the reps
Exactly.
I called at&t customer service a few times and the reps have no clue about the eSIM.
Esim set up is super easy though. It’s literally in the phone during setup, or in the cellular settings. Especially with the QR code of you need it.
It’s not any different then getting a physical sim getting activated.
If anything it’s a more streamlined process.
It’s similar to CDMA services, but the difference is your iPhone can store at least 8 Esim cards.
I think the only issue some people will have are just common user errors but that’s going to happen regardless.
Over the air activation is not new and honestly is as easy as this video shows
@@smittycal it doesn’t let me transfer and the qr code doesn’t work and i updated my old phone and it still didn’t work..
Great video! I also think you should share how in quick start some carriers support the option to move sim over there as well!
Wow this actually looks incredibly easy
Thankyou soo much!! I just bought the iphone 14 pro max with a physical sim! Didn’t knew the new iphones only allowed esim so i was scared lol but now i can set it up easily!
You probably dont live in US
Great video! 👏🏻👏🏻💪🏻 👋🏻 Greetings from Spain 🇪🇸.
Thanks for this video, my phone will be here today and I was really worried about this process. Thanks for helping me out before my phone gets here
My pleasure, let me know how it goes
Thank you you showed it the most easy and simple he went out all this other stuff I like unlocked phones I do not want to be on no contract so this will be helpful thanks
Dream one. This is really insane just like a monster.
Glad the mistake was caught early. Great video!
Very nicely explained
Need videos like this.
Thank you. Imagen regular people doing this process. A lot of them are going to be so frustrated.
The ESIM was an easy set up I was shocked I was expecting to have to go down to my carrier to do it but the iPhone did it itself
Most underrated channel 😤
thankk youuu
This was super helpful since I had to buy my phone unlocked from Apple due to them not recognizing my t mobile/ sprint account. This should be pretty seamless and easy tomorrow.
Awesome!. Let me know how it goes
You rule. 👏🏻👏🏻
Good video! Show the same process from iPhond to Android.
I’m gonna be doing that
Hello ,can you use also a physical sim card ? After you paired phone with Esim it is possible also to unpair just in case i want to switch to physical sim with another number. Thank you
So when ur on the primary Sim and someone calls u on ur business does it auto switch and u get the call or do u have to switch it back to check calls and texts?
Did the esim card come with the phone or did you have to go to an AT&T store to get the card?
So u can use any carrier ?
looks easy enough
thanks for this video!! very helpful :)
What is the price for data plans? I heard eSims are more expensive on data plans?
Would it be possible to transfer that eSIM from iPhone to Apple Watch?
Can u activate E-sim, if you were on android before.
Help: Can I Transfer the eSim # back to my previous sim again? And use that sim with my iPhone 13 or whatever?? 🔥
I have an iphone 6s and ordered the 14 pro, is the esim transfer different?
I’m confused. So when I get my phone I completely set it up with the same Wi-fi my old phone is on, then go into settings and cellular, then type in my number and it will connect?
*the fact that the iphone 14 pro max is literally the number 1 phone and now AT&T is blowing bombs around the esim*
what about if I use my older phone to trade it for the new one and i don’t have access to the older phone,can i put my sim in another phone?
The new iphone 14 pro max esim edition is only available in America, is what i saw online. I live in a different country and my 14 pro max has the sim tray
quick question. i purchased a iphone 14pro on a 36month installment contract on at&t and im going back to PH. obviously the at&t network will only work if i have international plan, but i also do have a Philippine phone number on my iphone 11. is the other Esim slot of the 14pro is locked and useable only for att numbers ? or can i use another carrier which is from PH
Yes sir
How u do you switch back from esim to SIM card?
What I hate about eSIM is that if my phone is damaged, instead of me taking my sim card out and putting it in another phone. I now have to run to the carrier store to buy a new phone, or somehow figure out how to get a eSIM or sim card for a spare phone I have. To me its a way for the carriers to control you. Because if you do happen to damage your phone. You are forced to buy a new phone, where before you can take your sim card and put it any unlocked phone you chose.
You wouldn't have to buy a new phone. You would just go to the carrier and ask for a SIM card and tell them to link it back to your account. There are always growing pains. Many other phones have eSIMs to. In many cases you just log into your account and there are screens to change the ICCID or eSIM, and many MVNO carriers have apps that let you do that or even sign up for service instantly. People forget that CDMA phones (Verizon) had worked like this before LTE -- they did not have SIM cards. You'd have to go to a store or sign into your account to change the IMEI number.
How can I get mine fix if is my first time of using iphone
When u receive a call, how do u know which number its on
What if I want to get the iPhone 14 pro max but the iPhone I have right now is not connected
How do we get QR code of our existing sim. I’m using my number since last year I don’t want to change it. I can i get QR code??
I only have my phone and SIM card only is it possible to do a eSIM
How do you swap from iphone to Android on an eSIM?
Does all phone services have esim?
Please how can I unlock an esim with an AT&T carrier?
Is it this easy on android?
Esim hv lots of disadvantages if phone is faulty and can’t ON your phone and can’t port to a next phone .
What happens if the carrier doesn't support eSIM? Will it work anyway or not?
nop
@@abeidsalim8008 All the US carriers support eSIM. Phones sold outside the United States will still have a SIM card. People will need to keep that in mind if they want to buy one in the US and use it overseas.
Hope the A15 chip is not recycled from old phones
What happens if you change SIM cards (but still with same phone number) every few months? How would you do the eSIM transfer then?
Do I have to insert the physical SIM card in my old iPhone each time when I do the eSIM to the iPhone 14?
only 21 supported country so some might be in trouble and not usable in other countries and even if you can in those 21 countries ,most do not support prepaid plans ,so esim is not useful for those who plan to travel with their iphone 14
What if you're transferring from an android?
Great question, either a). You bought from carrier and the iPhone will auto activate when powered on and connected to wifi.
B). Do QR code like he did with ATT
C. Use carrier app / website… double check your carrier support eSim for instructions
If your carrier advertising the new iPhones, they sure support eSIM. Because makes no sense them advertising the new phone if they only do pSIM lol
My i phone x doesn't support esim so i can't transfer that physical sim card number from my i phone x to iphone 14 pro max 😢?
was the ATT an existing number (upgrade) or was it a new line?
New line
In the US with companies that supports Esim swap it will do the same for physical sims. I activated my 13pro max last year this way from my iPhone 7 Plus with Verizon.
Most of the major US Carriers will do this as well as some international carries
I'm on tmobile and coming from an android phone...no clue how this is going to work and i'm pretty tech savvy to begin with.
The question now is can you conveniently reverse the process? Can I activate the 13pm from the 14pm?
Yes, but the 13 would be using the esim. If you want to use a physical sim again you would need to contact the carrier.
What if I dont have a wifi while I am setting up from scratch, I'm f'ed up then, right.
I was setting up esim during school with friends hotspot but It didn’t work so I had to wait for a while to connect to it on hot spot
@@AirDropScar you have the phone already?
Did you trying paying the internet bill?
If you are in a coverage area with the provider you are setting up service with, WiFi is not needed, just like it was not needed with the physical SIM. The network will let you register your iPhone.
You do realize you can go to like McDonald’s or Starbucks and get their Wi-Fi, right?
Is the process any different if transferring from an Android?
You’ll probably need to contact your carrier and get a QR code.
So if I lost my qr card cannot use 😔
When is the review?
I just got my device and I typical do 2 weeks with a device at least
Easy to activate initially but I switch phones all the time. With Verizon, I have to call them to switch an eSim number to a different phone. That will be a huge pain for others that switch phones regularly. Wait times to get a Verizon rep are 30 minutes to an hour. I won't be purchasing a new iPhone until Verizon makes it easy to switch an eSim phone on their website without needing to call a rep.
I’m sure this will change as Esim is more wide spread. Especially as more phones will adopt Esim in the future. Esim to non Esim phones will be the biggest hurdles. But for the most part that’s not an issue with newer iPhones iPhones from the X and newer.
People forget that before LTE existed that Verizon did not have SIM cards anyway. You'd have to call or log into your account if you wanted to use a different phone on Verizon (and it had to be a Verizon phone). I think going from an eSIM phone to another eSIM phone will be easy and will be able to be done online. You can already start new service by using the apps for that carrier as you mentioned. Hopefully that ease transfers over to moving between phones.
@@smittycalother phones have had esim for years. This just adds a needless step
How did the new phone "detect" your phone number(s)? Is it based on your apple account after you logged in or based on the same wireless network?
Based on you I could account I presume.
Yes, it depends on the carrier but the phone numbers will be stored to your iCloud
Stupid greedy move from Apple. Now if you want to use an iPhone and a Android it’s going to be a pain to switch sims. Where’s the freedom? This all looks like exclusive bs to lock you in. Btw why is it no one showing how to switch from Android to the new iPhone 14?
i have an unboxing of my white 13 pro max on my channel! i plan on upgrading to next year's iPhone.
If you don’t have Wi-Fi you don’t deserve this phone 🤣
so you can transfer any physical sim in your older iphone to your iphone 14, then the physical sim becomes inactive just in that iphone? or if i put the physical sim into let's say android phone, would it work normally again? And let's say you delete on your iphone 14 the transferred physical sim as esim, would then the physical sim become active automatically? 🤔
Once a SIM is canceled in a phone, rather Android or iPhone or simple phone, you need a new SIM to start new service. eSIM is reusable.
@@davidgates5699 but how a phone can cancel a physical sim? I thought only the network provider can cancel a physical sim.
@@romanromero5099 the network provider cancels it when you move service to the esim
@@missbutts85 ok so it cancels through network... i thought it just copies sim data to esim and disables the physical sim and re-enables it once you delete the esim version.
I am pretty sure that once you do this process of transitioning from physical SIM to eSIM, the physical SIM card is now permanently deactivated. It cannot be used in any device. Not in an iPhone, not in an Android. The physical SIM is now a useless piece of plastic. If you decide you want to go back to physical SIM, you will have to contact your carrier, and they will have to send you a new physical SIM, which you could put into any device. The eSIM profile you had activated on the iPhone would get deactivated. Your account cannot be tied to an eSIM and a physical SIM at the same time. It's one or the other.
Why you deleted it the first time
Phone number was visible
Ah okay
First time being this early
Can I use 2 eSIM in iphone 14 pro max
Yes. I am currently using 2 eSIMs at this time
how can i add 8 sims
on my device?
The under cellular in setting you just keep adding sims till it stops you
Finger nails, looks nice
Remember when everyone was complaining about this? Seems a lot easier and you don’t have to look for an ejector tool or paper clip. This is a much better improvement.
Biggest complaint is that not every country has an e-sim option. So travellers might have a problem when going to a new country and trying to get a local sim so they pay lower rates.
Nope, the major complaint about Esim is that there are people who own more then one device that likes to switch time to time once you activate the Esim in the 14’s your physical Sim is permanently deactivated then if people switch back then they have to call there carrier for a new physical SIM card.
I have an iphone 6s that is unable to update due to storage even if i reset everything but everything else works fine. How will i transfer now? I also would like to keep using that iphone 6s from time to time. I had a note 10 plus and i would constantly switch the sim to the 6s whenever i had to go to risky places. I no longer have the note 10 plus.
From what I've seen there are quite a few eSIM compatible providers that provide regional or global service when traveling with rates that aren't too bad. They've been doing this for quite a few years and more coming. eSIMs have been around for a few years in Android phones and iPhones and used a lot specifically for travel purposes (get your eSIM set up before traveling, and it provides data for your primary SIM for WiFi calling, texting, etc.) HOPEFULLY it will be just as easy for them to give our a QR code instead of SIM card as the remaining carriers come onboard.
@@Elizabethhogan56 Unfortunately that will probably be more difficult. I have an iPhone 8 and will be upgrading to iPhone 14. I still like the idea of an eSIM because I switch prepaid carriers and wouldn't have to wait for a SIM (and sometimes have to pay for one). Might just go ahead and trade in my iPhone 8 then and if i want a second phone get an iPhone XR which are cheap now. Decisions decisions!

sucks i have call my carrier
What if I never owned iOS before
bro can't people just scan the QR code you showed in this video and copy your sim?
Seems very simple and quick, especially as the vast majority of us will do it once and not worry about it for a few years. Not sure what all the fuss is about on the social networks. I suppose it is the anti-Apple crowd doing their usual?
It's mostly some US people wondering what they're gonna do when they travel since eSIM isn't widespread across the world yet, not to mention some people in other countries won't be able to buy the American 14 series for cheaper than what they'll find in their country
@@Metamine0 Actually the US is behind more when it comes to most countries with cellular. eSIM has been available in a lot of countries over 140 for a while.
The concerns are mainly 2 things. 1) people traveling to countries where eSIM is not supported. Previously they could just buy a physical SIM and put it in the phone. No longer an option. 2) People with multiple devices (for example 1 iPhone and 1 Android) who like to move their physical SIM between devices. For example on Monday I'm using my iPhone, on Tuesday maybe I'll use my android. Like changing clothes. I fall into category 2. It's definitely a very small category of people, but also includes people like tech reviewers who go through many phones weekly and monthly. It seems like Apple has done some good work to be able to move an eSIM from one iPhone to another, but moving eSIM from iPhone to Android or vice versa is not as nice. The process for doing this will vary by carrier. Some carriers may let you do it via an app, some via a website, some you may have to call them. A worry I have is that carriers may decide to limit how often you can do this, or start charging fees - and then it will feel like we are back in the bad old days of CDMA phones. We will see if anything like this happens. I don't like this move to eSIM, it affects my ease of using multiple devices, but it is the future and even if I don't like it, I will have to get used to it.
@@Metamine0 I found a website offering worldwide eSIM coverage. You open an account, and PAYG gets an eSIM for where you are going, all before you leave the US. Hopefully, other countries will see what is coming and get eSIM coverage. If Apple pushes, others follow, which is suitable for faster uptake.
@@shirokuro73 You are, of course, right, teething problems for the average consumer and headaches for a niche minority. But this is how tech moves on, and we must adapt, as you say. Hopefully, Apple kickstarting this will move it faster; and solutions are found, as the inevitable unforeseen consequences pop up.

Yes sir, it’s sim profiles. Not SIM cards 😂 just saying
iPhone 15 will no longer have sim card and lightning
Pretty complicated video
It's no any but... it's painful and stupid I should have more control over my phone for example travel a lot and for example in Moldova esim it's only for people how made a contract with carier for not less then one year. I travel in Egypt Europe... and I used to switch that Sim and save some money time. But now I need to pay more for less. I used to spend 100 dollars for 4 months in Moldova with no limit used to swap Sim card online the time in Egypt you get a sim for 10 dollars and forget about that for one week or more. I can't use iphone 14 in Moldova because they don't have esim for that place I used to buy sim all the time so but now my phone will not work there 😅 way do I needed this innovation then? I don't like that sistem and need to pay more 😒 for what? This may work only for reach people or who never get out from there country.
Sorry … not making sense
I like Iphone. But time over time evertime we buy one I feel like I just got fucked in the ass by Apple
How you like them apples 🍎 android 🤣
Please I am in need of a device.
Anyone with a good used phone and is willing to give it away would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
Okay money machine lol 😆
Timcoding is truly the best out here
THIS IS NOT A PAID ADS.
Lord I hope every body trained their reps because tomorrow is going to be a nightmare 🥲🥲🥲 here's to me being at the phone store for 4hrs tomorrow 🙃🙃
