1. Backup using iCloud or iTunes on old iPhone
2. Restore using iCloud or iTunes on new iPhone
3. scan the QR code to activate esim

Thanks for asking! I will drop by to get one soon.

How to activate an eSIM on your iPhone | Apple Support

You can add eSIM as part of the Setup process (see video from Apple Support above). Since Cellular setup is at the beginning, it will ask you for the QR code first. (Before it even asks you for Apple ID or if you want to transfer data from iCloud/another phone)

If you don't want to spend long time at the Digi Center or if they don't let you take the QR code home, you can just start the Setup process and scan QR code there, got through rest of setup, connect your old phone via cable, then go home while the transfer process starts.

Still feel like physical sim is more convenient while eSim is more better for travel (data roaming)

Comparison for pro and non-pro

1. pro using new chip |non-pro still using previous chip
2. pro got telescope | non-pro tak rak
3. pro using titanium case | non-pro using aluminum


of course there's few more features for photo/video which only pro had while non-pro tak rak, otherwise more or less about the same except the chip.
if for normal usage, 15 should be sufficient, for heavy gamer/ photography. better opt for pro

and and 15 is still using silent/mute button while pro only have active button

Thanks for the tips!

Yes but I have two SIM cards.

please keep us update 🙊

Physical sim is definitely more convenient. You dont need to go to the telco to get your bar codes everytime you switch your phone.

But Esim better for travel? Usually counters selling sim cards overseas for tourists would only have physical sim cards ready. Then again, I only use roaming nowadays to avoid the hassle of hunting for a sim card when Im overseas. Once landed just turn on phone and start using.

I also not ordering from maxis anymore, that annoying message not auto remove even after I clear all the payment earlier.

Waste my time to visit them and checking by call and Maxis only manage to remove it after 3 trial remove and it take 2 weeks+ to settle it.
