Why an eSIM is a Must-Have for Your iPhone 17

The iPhone 17 is expected to double down on the eSIM-only future, and for good reason. A digital SIM, or eSIM, is a digital SIM embedded directly into your device, as defined by the GSMA. For a traveler, this means instant connectivity without the hassle.

Imagine landing in Tokyo and connecting to the internet before the plane even reaches the gate. With an eSIM for your new iPhone 17, you can buy and install your data plan from home. This is a game-changer compared to hunting for a local SIM card shop at the airport.

Plus, with dual eSIM support, you can keep your home number active for calls and texts while using a Yoho Mobile eSIM for affordable data abroad—the perfect setup for digital nomads and frequent flyers. It’s the best of both worlds and one of the smartest international roaming alternatives available.
