top up on last friday 12pm++, never receive anything.

Yes. Also no need to worry got data to setup or not too.

what data setup? eSIM also does not need to do any data setup, just add the eSIM using QR code for one time thing.

refering to Wi-Fi network if not how to connect to eSIM to receive information?

Setting up an eSIM is completely digital and eliminates the need for a physical SIM card. Before you begin, make sure you are connected to a stable Wi-Fi network and that your phone is unlocked.

yes, day and night difference (in speedtest only).

in real life, it makes very little practical difference in day-to-day experience on mobile phones given what u can do on it.

thx for the reply bro

Setting up an eSIM is completely digital and eliminates the need for a physical SIM card. Before you begin, make sure you are connected to a stable Wi-Fi network and that your phone is unlocked.

to connect to wifi or network to activate is not a big deal. If u are at the store, they provide wifi for u to activate, if u buy the eSIM at home, u activate using ur home wifi, what is the big deal?

it is not something that really create the deal breaker between physical and eSIM.

physical sim - to change to another phone, u need to have ready SIM tray ejector to eject the SIM tray to put in SIM card. and physical sim u can get it lost, or if u lost ur phone u need to report lost of physical sim also, or worse case, anyone who get procession of ur physical sim can do funny thing before u reported lost to telco.
