Do I need to remove physical SIM for eSIM?
No, you do not need to remove your physical SIM card to use an eSIM.
If your phone supports dual SIM functionality, you can actually run both a physical SIM and an eSIM concurrently. If you need help keeping your communications organized or if you are a frequent traveller, it can be helpful to take advantage of a physical SIM for a go-to home number and then install/activate an eSIM as a prepaid data plan.
Find it confusing to use both? You can remove your physical SIM, but it’s not necessary. Instead, you can assign which SIM you would like to have to handle calls, texts, and data within your phone's settings. You can then assign each SIM/eSIM with a different label to help you remember.
