"SIM cards, the small slips of plastic that have held your mobile subscriber
information since time immemorial, are on the verge of extinction. In an effort
to save space for other components, device makers are finally dropping the SIM
slot, and Google is the latest to move to embedded SIMs with the Pixel 10
series. After long avoiding eSIM, I had no choice but to take the plunge when
the time came to review Google’s new phones. And boy, do I regret it."
