Flip Phone announced the launch of eSIM technology. This is truly exciting news for cellular customers because, alongside technological advancement, it represents a process that makes choosing a cellular provider more accessible to the public and improves the overall user experience, making it more convenient and effortless. The use of eSIM technology is cost-free for devices that support it, including iPhone models (starting from the iPhone 11), Galaxy phones (starting from the S20), and FLIP devices (starting from FLIP 3).
This innovative technology features a built-in universal smart chip in mobile devices that allows connection to cellular providers without the need for a physical SIM card. The usage of this technology enables device miniaturization and better sealing against moisture and dust. Among the advantages of using eSIM technology are convenience and time-saving, as the technology is already embedded in the device and can be virtually connected to the cellular provider, as well as easy and convenient activation through QR code scanning.
The use of Flip Phone's eSIM, available for existing and new customers, can be done directly through QR code scanning on the company's website, eliminating the need to wait for a physical SIM card or call customer service to speak with company representatives. The joining process is simple and fast, as every customer can access the Flip Phone website, check if their device supports the technology, and easily join without any additional cost. The new technology also allows setting up additional lines on the same device, which is particularly beneficial for business customers. Additionally, the company will continue to enable smartwatch connectivity to eSIM.
