Will Maxis offer its eSIM technology to the iPhone XS or any devices that support eSIM?

What is eSIM?

eSIM stands for embedded SIM, an advanced new technology widely used in countries such as Japan, South Korea and the USA. This technology uses a small chip built into the device to replace the traditional SIM card, eliminating the need to carry around a physical card.


Benefits of eSIM

Convenience:
No physical setup needed. Independence from the phone.

Internet of Things:
Increased connectivity and convenience with the ability to connect more devices.

Download the Android Wear AND Huawei Wear apps to your smartphone

Step 2
Sync the Huawei Watch 2 to your phone and follow instructions on the Android Wear app

Step 3
Connect to the WiFi or your mobile data and scan the QR code on your Maxis eSIM card

Step 4
Follow the instructions on your screen to activate your eSIM profile

Step 5
Your Huawei Watch 2 is now paired with your eSIM and ready for use!

From the maxis eSIM FAQ page, seems like eSIM can have main standalone plan

What is the difference between an eSIM MISM and a standalone eSIM?

eSIM MISM:Primary: Can make receive calls and SMS

Secondary: Cannot receive calls and SMS

eSIM Standalone: These will have its own line and is able to make calls

Sure. It’s actually very simple.

I noticed both of the forummers with no hotspot issue were both using 2 SIM cards (esim with a physical sim). And one forummer complained he wasn’t about to use the hotspot initially but it was alright after a few hours.

So what I did was I slot in my other number with a physical sim and voila! Mobile hotspot appeared. It stays even after I removed the physical sim.

And my hotspot works flawlessly after. No more blue circle

This is how to solve the mobile hotspot problem
