I tried eSIM’s for the first time while traveling in Ireland, used Orange on iPhones.

Terrible experience. So confusing. Data worked fine but I had a lot of trouble with everything else. Probably should have taken more time to do it, I researched and bought them on the ride to the airport and then activated upon arrival, jet-lagged and tired.

It’s just too much to go through. And it seemed to take arbitrary amounts of time for configuration changes to work, with no feedback on if what you’re doing is correct or not.

The physical sim days were easier. Oh well I will try again on the next international trip.
