Abu Dhabi – Mubasher: Etisalat has launched the embedded SIM cards (e-SIMs) suitable for devices running iOS.
The UAE telecom operator said on Tuesday that the new service will be available on Apple devices as part of a new update to iOS 12.1, which is set to be introduced later today.
Etisialat has previously launched the dual SIMs technology, supported by the new iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and iPhone XR.
