Technology is always evolving and, with it, also transforms the habits of everyday life. The mobile phones, which two decades ago only served for calls and messages, became an indispensable tool for communicating, working and accessing the internet. Now a new change is on the way and promises to change the way we use them.
According to Green Vibe, this traditional card (yes) is being replaced by a more modern technology called Esim. The leading telecommunications operators in Spain, such as Movistar, Vodafone and Orange, have already begun to adopt this new solution, which promises to simplify the use of mobile phones.
What is Esim and how it works
According to the same source, Esim is a digital version of the SIM card. Instead of being a physical card, Esim has been incorporated into the devices themselves. This means that it is not necessary to insert or exchange any chip. Everything is done virtually.
The same source explains that this technology allows you to associate the same phone number with various equipment, such as mobile phones, smart watches or tablets. It is also possible to have two different numbers in the same device, for example, one staff and one professional.
In addition, Esim facilitates the connection to mobile networks in other countries. For those traveling frequently, this option makes it simpler and faster to activate a service abroad without having to buy local cards.
Costs and adhesion to the
Also according to Green Vibe, there are companies that offer free change from physical card to Esim when a new line is created or hiring the multisim service. This service allows you to use the same line on several devices at the same time.
Esim itself has no additional cost, but extra services, such as Multisim, have prices set by operators. Each company manages its plans independently, which can influence the final cost to the customer.
Easier for companies and users
As the same source indicated, one of the main advantages of ESIM is the ease of activation. Through a simple QR code, provided by the operator, the user can configure the service on your equipment without leaving home.
Switching of carrier also becomes simpler as it is not necessary to replace any card. Just remove the old profile and install the new one on the same device quickly and safely.
For companies, this flexibility allows better management of employees’ telephone lines, as well as reducing physical card costs and stores travel.

Global and complicated connectivity
According to the same source, Esim’s main innovation is to allow a border connectivity. The user can activate mobile services in different countries from the same equipment, which represents an advantage for those who work or travel abroad.
Also, as there is no physical card, the risk of damage, losses or need for replacement is reduced, which may pose a savings and greater convenience in everyday life.
The future of traditional yes cards
Although yes cards are still used, the publication says that their presence is decreasing. Many newer models of mobile phones are already prepared only for Esim, and the tendency is that more and more devices will no longer have a physical card entry.
The change will be gradual and current users need not worry about immediate changes. However, new contracts and devices can already come with this integrated technology.
A new phase in telecommunications
According to Green, Esim marks the beginning of a new phase in telecommunications. Remote management, simplicity in activation and the ability to use multiple devices with the same number represent a transformation in the sector.
This innovation will influence not only consumers, but also manufacturers and operators, who will have to adapt to this digital reality.
Meanwhile, the two systems will coexist for a while, but it seems that the future will be without physical cards.
