e-SIM Going Replace The Traditional SIM card(Plan by Apple and Samsung)

e-SIM

Apple and Samsung are planning to replace the traditional sim card to an e-sim.For that , they are currently in talks with the GSM Association (GSMA) to completely eradicate the physical SIM cards that we currently need to use with mobile phones.
  Currently,if you want to change from one mobile operator to another, such as if you fly to another country and don't want to use roaming, you have to physically remove the SIM card, keep it safe and insert a new one from another mobile operator
    By the introduction of e-SIM,a new SIM, that is embedded directly within the device which can then be reprogrammed immediately to work with mobile operators around the world that support the standard can be rolled out.
