Bouygues Telecom eSIM: Everything You Need to Know
Both options are not available to the user based on B&You tariffs, who can still choose to replace a standard SIM with a new eSIM for a EUR 20 charge. Existing customers on Sensation tariffs also have this choice if they already own an eSIM-compatible smartphone.
In addition to the innovative aspect of this technology, thanks to an eSIM profile and a compatible smartphone, there is no need to manually change your SIM card, for example, when you change smartphones. Similarly, if the phone is eSIM compatible, it becomes multi-SIM / dual-SIM to facilitate pro/personal use. Finally, when traveling abroad, adding an eSIM profile of a national operator allows you to take advantage of the mobile Internet on-site and to have a local number to be contacted more easily by residents of the country visited. It is possible to have up to five eSIM profiles in a smartphone, all subscriptions and operators combined. However, only one can be used at a time.
