eSIM ≠ electronic SIM
eSIM = embedded SIM
Thanks so much for this video. I really wanted to watch someone make the switch, because I was hesitating to click "convert to esim" on my 13 pro max, not knowing what to expect.
Thankkkk youuu soo mucchhh this video helped me so much!!❤ at first I was worried that I won’t be able to get SIM card on my iphone 14 pro max but then I saw this video❤and this helped so muchh!! TYSM❤
Cool so if you have an unlocked iPhone you can have an eSIM and a physical Sim from another carrier this way you now have a dual Sim iPhone so let’s say you used to Sim cards one being a Verizon physical Sim or eSIM because Verizon also supports eSim You can then use a physical Sim from another carrier like AT&T or T-Mobile if your phone is unlocked and have dual sim support. Or you can set up another eSIM from another carrier in the same fashion. Then you will have dual eSIM support and no need for a physical Sim and it will work on two separate carriers simultaneously. But here’s the question how easy is it to delete an eSIM and reactivate a physical Sim with the same number I heard that process can be a little daunting. Either way thank you for the video thank you for the step-by-step demonstration and walk-through keep up the great work and I look forward to the next one have a good one.
Hey Saki. Thank you for the tutorial. What if I wanna switch back to samsung since I have both and like to use both and keep switching all the time?
Good question.. I wanna know that as well. Because I to switch between my android and apple device
@@bigdrews4360 It has to be done via the carrier. Some carriers allow the transfer to be completed on your online account and some carriers ask you to transfer it by calling them.
I guarantee you will have to pay I work at Cricket just as an example and we do have a “complimentary” on but there is still a price. So anytime anyone wants to change they have pay.
@@sakitech how would it work if I've never used esim and can't convert now cause sold my iPhone to get the 14 pro max unlocked from apple . my carrier is Verizon.
The U.S is the only country that’ll only have esim in regards to the i14. If you’re an american you should be able to just buy it online from Canada. Though you would have to check if it’ll work with your carrier first…
This is going to clog the carrier phone lines for many reasons. Not good at all for someone like myself who likes to swap phones frequently
Samsung also has the eSim. I think all manufacturers and carriers are going to the eSim within the next year. It will be nice to have multiple numbers on one phone with different eSims.
I believe the iPhone can store up to 8 at a time but only have 2 active.
So I can add multiple carriers
Be careful guys if you have 2 esim numbers activated,if you pop in. new SIM card ,your last Esim will be gone and you will need to contact your provider for a new bar code with a new virtual sim replacement for your number that just got kicked out by your new real sim .
Not sure how many virtual and actual numbers can be activated on iPhone 14 however on the 13 Pro Max it’s only 2 Esim slots or one sim and 1 Esim
I saw that you can have 6-8 esims but only 2 active on the iphone 14 series
Thanks so much, i really needed this🙏🙏
Why? So you can be tracked no matter what? Bad juju.
Very useful, thanks 🙏
That means you'll be tracked and tagged all the time. For those of you paranoid about being spied upon I rest my case. It's inconvenient for people who travel often because you have no option to pop the sim and get a local plan to avoid roaming charges. For me it means I won't be able to pop the sim out for my Good Lock workaround. And yes the S21 Ultra supports eSIM as my carrier so often pointed out. But at least Samsung users still have a choice. It's supposed to be safer but I think the carrier just wants to make more money or whatever else they wanna do. This is bad news if all other OEM's start doing the same thing.
Can you clarify Good Lock workaround? Thanks in advance
You have dual sim option with an esim. So you can use the local carrier when you travel.
Very useful tnx 💯🙌
How do you do this from Samsung galaxy to iPhone 14?
It’s asking for a QR code
Hey Saki, what happen i iphone broke down?
I only see “add eSIM” option but no convert option. What do I do??
I had the iPhone 12 for 2 years and I’m gonna get the iPhone 14 Plus for my birthday this year
What’s wrong with the back of your iPhone? Look like something wanna get out.
I have T-Mobile and mine doesn’t say convert to eSiM. It only says Add e-SiM. I have a 12 Pro Max. Does that means it’s already been converted to eSiM? Also I have 2 IMEI.
I don't know if Android have this convert to eSIM feature on their flagship. Might take a few (annoying) extra steps unlike the iPhone, may involve calling your carrier or go to your carrier's site.
Is there a way to get the convert to eSIM option removed as I only want to use my physical sim
WHY WOULD SOMEONE WANT AN eSIM I LIKE TO SWAP MY SIM CARD EASILY TO A DIFFERENT PHONE IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS TO MY MAIN PHONE
Believe me I never thought so many bozos would fall for this and I'm not under any duress to get an eSIM although the S21 Ultra supports it. I'm not even paranoid but it's just another tracking method...why the heck does no one see this. And yeah there's the swapping of phones thing....I do that. Sheesh if Samsung did that there'd be hell to pay.
Thank you so much sir
What if you dont have a cellular option in your settings menu, which is the case with me?
eSIM is short for embedded SIM, not electronic :)
Does Verizon support it? I don't see it on my 7 plus, but I think that might be because it can't run IOS 16. Getting a new phone next week.
I got a iPhone 7+ and want to upgrade to iPhone 15. But this option doesn’t work for me and I have att. But I’ll figure this out
I couldn’t find the option and unable to do. What should I do?
Call your carrier
🙏I have a doubt , does the physical sim still work when if converted to e sim or do we need to conver it bact in order to use the physical sim incase the phone broke etc..
I have a question pls help me
Can I make normal phone calls with USA version only esim ?
So can we use another carrier physical number
Can I convert back to the physical sim from esim myself with my phone carrier?
If the phone still has a physical sim. But he's saying the IPhone 14 don't have a physical sim.
Best Video, thanks
Do phones have to be factory unlocked?to easily transfer
But the iPhone 14 won't have a physical sim so there will be no option to convert to esim
Well, let’s say you have an iPhone 12 mini (in my case) I can convert my iPhone 12 mini which has a physical SIM to my iPhone 14 which has eSIM!
Never knew you could do that.
My carrier support changing from Sim to eSim bit it costs money
Really what carrier?
good
This is no bueno for travelers.....smh
Hi @sakitech , U are doing this work after insert the physical sim no But If I want to use this same number to Iphone 14 pro (There is no sim tray here), then what's the procedure?
Good question. I am also curious to know how to transfer my number/esim from my 13 pm to 14 pm. I'm dreading calling AT&T because I hate to be put on hold forever.
Oh, easy! When you first set up your phone, you can transfer your physical SIM to your eSIM as long as your old phone is nearby! Go to settings, cellular, then the instructions should be there! Watch this video! ruclips.net/video/g5j7ILjx-BI/видео.html
@@CalebJSewell Great. Thanks!
My pixel has this feature too
where?
What if i want to use the sim card again?
you need to order a new sim card from your carrier
You can call and order a new physical sim or just go to a physical store with your sim and they can do the converting process
So bad feature, I'm traveling a lot and I have 4 sim cards in my wallet, I was like just replace the sim for the country I did visit but now there's country's didn't have the esim in their companies, what is the solution?
eSIM isn't short for electronic SIM, it's short for embedded SIM.
Can a esim to old iPhone like iPhone 6s, 6s plus , and iPhone 7 to the new iPhone 14,14 plus, 14 pro, and 14 pro max.
wrong bud, In Mexico and Canada Iphone 14 will have the physical eSIM
Great content. Question. What's the benefit of having an e-sim over a sim card?
I don’t know a lot about eSIM and all of that but what I read online is that its more beneficial because when thieves steal your phone, they take your SIM card to get into your information! However, since eSIM is inside your phone and cannot be removed, there would be no point for people to steal your phone.
Also, if you switch to a new carrier, you won’t have to wait for the carrier to send a physical SIM through the mail or go to the carriers store! They can send a QR code and your eSIM will transfer your information!!
Also, port scams will be decreased!! Again, I don’t know a whole lot, but that’s what I do know!
@@CalebJSewell maybe true. But what happens if the e sim gets a bug or a virus 🤔 or is hacked. Also if apple or samsung sends an email saying please move your sim card something went wrong at are headquarters. And go to your carrier to get a new one. Can't do that with an e sim
@@jeromegold3216 Good point! What I would say is that if it were to get a virus or something, you can always back up an eSIM and as long as you have the backup, you should be able to bring it up to your carrier. (Don’t mark me on this, I don’t know much about this, so if I’m wrong, don’t listen to this!)
@@CalebJSewell I don't think a lot of us know exactly what we're talking about. You can transfer your stuff from sim card to pc because the PC has a sim tray.
@@jeromegold3216 Yeah!! I think that either way, people who switch over to eSIM will know what they are doing and people who don’t know what they are doing as well!
how does this work for companies like simple mobile by t mobile. it’s very convenient for me bc even if i travel i have unlimited everything for only 50 bucks. if i change to another plan for any big company it’s 80+
Can we do it on s22 Ultra ?because i have this msg esim ? Thks saki 🙏
Yes
Good option 👍
Mine won’t convert
Once the E-Sim is active and I chose to go back to the Physical sim would it still work?
That’s a good question
My IPhone 11 has Esim feature.
Timcoding is truly the best out here
THIS IS NOT A PAID ADS
Can it be done on s21 ultra with MetroPcs by Tmobile ?
Why the heck do you wanna do it....you won't be able to pop the sim in and out of the phones because the sim card can't be used again. Keep your option while you still can. And as far as I know eSIM's aren't free at least not in my neck of the woods. We should resist this not encourage it.
@@flicka25 totally agreed. I just saw the eSim option on my phone thats why. But no I'm good the way it is right now.
That's going to suck because you are locked to the phone company that you got the phone from. If for some reason you want to change your service or something you can't until they unlock it. I already got the S22U and I sacrificed the SD card when I upgraded from my Note20U. I shouldn't of done that. Yea there is no way I would switch to a non sim phone.
C'mon Saki you changed the phone cos you don't like having your hand forced.....admit it.
You changed the phone in between 😂
Yes, but before starting the process
Imo I think your better off with digital sim card not interested in esim at all
They either doing this for money or the government is making them do this, cause it's alot easier to track esim
Can anyone confirm that it works in H2O?
If you're worried about the government tracking you. With esim, it's gonna be alot easier to track you. It's gonna be hard on people that travel to other countries. Pretty soon, every phone manufacturer is gonna do it. Government got a part in this.
@@TobyFromGT crazy thing is, samsung phones already come with esim, but not to many people use it.
Only in the U.S they are doing away with the sim card tray.
And Canada....and some people do not see what they are getting themselves into.
After you convert from sim to esim is your old sim card still can be used?
It'll be deactivated
@@MaxMobile22 how can i re activate
@brandongore7893 Contact the service provider and they will transfer your esim to a physical sim. You need to go to the physical store, it is a lot easier in person.
I swap iphone and Android I'll wait ✋️ to upgrade 14 pro max. If one breaks change sim finished . Customers service tranfer to digital assistant hell no
the iphone 15 has the physical sim tray, lets not lie
Esim is bad when you travel to another country 😖😖
What if you have a sim on a galaxy and buy a I phone 14 pro max how do you convert to esim?
Contact your carrier
Certain carriers allow you to do it on their website via your account page.
@@sakitech thank you man for making this video, I got the iPhone 13 mini, and I had to call my carrier to activate my phone because I couldn’t use my old Sim card
This is going to be my story too. Is the physical Sim I have in my s22 still going to work? Or does it get deactivated and become useless when I activate the eSim on the iPhone?
Alot of people don't know this, but galaxy phones already use esim & physical Sim cards. If you switch between a iphone 14 & galaxy, you would have to call in & I also think, you can do it on your carrier website
It’s crazy everyone is worried about being tracked. Excuse me everyone that uses a smartphone is being tracked.
The destruction of being able to travel
Fugk apple this is going to ruin the ability to travel cause you won't be able to swap to a new sim in a new country
It's the wackiest thing ever.. hope immigrants like me don't have it hard wen moving to and from
It is not future,it’s a rip off,Apples clever way to rid of your second device by killing the physical sim so you can’t use it anymore!
I have the Galaxy still and I want to be able to switch around with the sim.
Us less I get my hands on an overseas version of 14 pro max ,not buying it😮
What a hassle .. you spend almost $1,500 on an unlocked iPhone pro max 14 plus a separate fee to buy a separate adapter … what a joke….and now you have to deal with. Another hassle of switching to an eSIM
Only iPhones charges a separate fee to get an adapter … seriously ????
esim service is “dent coin” best💪💪💪
I only see “add eSIM” option but no convert option. What do I do?
