Global eSIM Market

According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled " eSIM Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2022-2027," the global eSIM market reached a value of US$ 2.25 Billion in 2021. Embedded SIM (eSIM) represents a form of reprogrammable hardware chipset that is installed permanently into an electronic device to support multiple accounts. It aids in activating the mobile plan, authenticating user identity, allowing switching to various mobile network operators (MNOs), updating software settings, and providing additionally secured over-the-air (OTA) update capability. As compared to a traditional SIM card, eSIM offers superior reliability, optimal security, and improved network, while eliminating the physical need of swapping or handling SIM cards in specific slots. Consequently, it is extensively used in connected vehicles, smartphones, laptops, and machine-to-machine (M2M) operations. Apart from this, eSIM is easier to activate, requires minimal space, and is affordable, due to which it is further utilized across various industrial verticals. At present, eSIM chips are mainly available in soldered and removable forms.

We are regularly tracking the direct effect of COVID-19 on the market, along with the indirect influence of associated industries. These observations will be integrated into the report.
