That sounds pretty useful. Is this “tool” just software that could also be rolled out to other pixels or is there something physically different on the hardware level?
as far as I can see, pixel 7 pro at least has it as well! moved from 7 pro to 8 pro recently
It’s a really important feature, but I’m not sure I’d call it ‘beloved’.
Can you use the conversion tool on networks that don’t offer eSIMs directly? There are still many networks, especially smaller or cheaper ones, that only offer physical SIMs.
From the TL;DR portion at the top of the article (handy things, you should try reading them on occasion):
- eSIM transfers are finally here, letting you easily migrate your eSIM from an old Android phone to the new Pixel 8 series.
- You will also be able to convert a physical SIM to an eSIM, which will be required for dual-SIM functionality.
- However, these features will not work on all phones across all carriers, so discretion is advised.
