Technological progress is designed to make our lives easier and richer and allow us to enjoy new products and services.

The eSIM is the most significant advancement in the field of cellular communication in recent years, and recently grabbed many headlines when Apple launched the iPhone 14 in the US with support for eSIM only and without the familiar physical SIM card.

So what is it anyway? eSIM is a digital SIM which is embedded in the phone and contains identification information about the customer in a cellular network. The great advantage of the eSIM compared to a physical SIM card is the possibility to change the service of a cellular company, immediately, and without the need to change the SIM card.

In addition to changing the service of a cellular company with maximum ease, which will become possible when the cellular companies in Israel support the technology, the eSIM is also a real revolution in calls and surfing while you are abroad. Instead of purchasing expensive overseas packages from the cellular companies or wasting precious time on vacation to find a SIM Local, which will be used for 30 days and for one trip only, today you can already download a one-time global eSIM, an additional SIM for your device, which will only be activated if you fly abroad to start enjoying calls and surfing at super low prices abroad.

Over 50% of Israelis can already take advantage of the eSIM revolution in all their trips abroad, all that is needed is a mobile phone that supports eSIM (such as: iPhone 11 and above and Samsung S20 and above, without FE). The leading company in Israel in the field is WORLD8, which offers a global eSIM which is valid for 4 years and enables extremely low prices for calls and surfing every time you fly abroad. To take advantage of the eSIM revolution, you can simply go to the company's website or to one of the 500 Israel Post offices, and purchase a one-time global eSIM that comes as a QR code for immediate download to your device.
