Will an eSIM drain my battery?
No. An eSIM will not drain your battery any quicker than a physical SIM. However, if you only need data, we recommend you “Turn-off” your primary SIM, as using two SIMs will drain your battery faster. If you have two signal strength icons showing on your phone, then both SIMs are active.
