i see, TIL.

on the other hand, this doesn’t solve the hassle when my primary phone dies and I’m unable to log in to my carrier’s self care to generate the new eSIM QR code.

unless… it’s somehow possible to do that beforehand – “preload” the new eSIM in the backup phone and activate it only when the main phone dies.

i didn’t realize it was eSIM only until i had it at home. and i didn’t think much of it until a few days later.

what’s worse: none of my trusty backup phones support eSIM. so when my eSIM phone dies, i’m pretty much fucked until i buy a new one. :/

i explained the concept to my gf like this. so you say: increase wages of female workers? naah, increase wages of all workers!

immediately she was like huh… damn, you right.
