March
7 Grameenphone the largest mobile phone operator is going to launch the first
time e-SIM in Bangladesh. E-SIM will be used as an alternative to chipped SIM
in conventional plastic cards. E-SIM means a Virtual SIM because,
you can't catch or touch sim Instead, by scanning a QR code and following some
instructions, e-SIM will be activated on your mobile.
In
e-SIM technology, the chip of the SIM card is provided in the mobile phone
while making the mobile. If you look at the conventional SIM cards that you can
buy in SIM card stores or from any customer care we collect SIM cards, you will
see that there is a golden colored metal part here. Inside the gold colored
metal part is a chip or electronic circuit in this chip, the mobile operator
company stores its identity electronically. As a result, the SIM on which the
SIM will be launched will get the network of the said operator.
E-SIM
technology has made this process easier In this case, the manufacturer of the
mobile phone company has already given the chip of the SIM card in the mobile all
that is left is part of the network, operator or identity
When
you buy an e-SIM from an operator, they will give you a QR code scanning this
code will allow your phone to store all of the operator's contact network in
the e-SIM database within your set. Then the e-SIM will be automatically
installed on your phone and the mobile number in your e-SIM will be activated
on your phone. That’s enough.
Now
let's say for example, if you buy an e-SIM from Grameenphone, you will get some
documents along with the e-SIM in which the QR code of your e-SIM will be
printed. Then by scanning the QR code on the phone and following some instructions,
the e-SIM number will be activated on your phone.
What are the benefits of Grameen phone
e-SIM?
E-SIM
is a new and environmentally friendly new technology .E-SIM does not require a
separate plastic or electronic chip for each SIM. This is a virtual SIM By
storing multiple e-SIMs in your phone, you can turn it on or off whenever you
want. There are many single SIM flagship phones, such as the iPhone 11, in
which only a conventional SIM card can be inserted. But on iPhone 10S or later
models you can keep an e-SIM running if you wish. So if you've been using phones
from Apple, Samsung, Google Pixel, etc. for so long, you can now turn on a GP plastic
SIM with e-SIM on the basis of your phone model.
