About the Report
The analyst examines the emergence of the mobile eSIM. It also looks at examples of mobile eSIM deployment worldwide.
An eSIM (short for embeddedSIM) is software embedded directly into a device to allow automatic connectivity from the device (without the need for the user to purchase a separate SIM) and can also store multiple MNO profiles. One of the first introductions of eSIMs occurred in 2014 when Apple introduced the Apple SIM card in the US & the UK - with an eSIM installed in the iPad Air2 and the iPad Mini3 device allowing their customers to select their own MNO through the air after purchasing the device.
