Android 13 will support smartphones without physical SIM card slots. This was reported by CNet.
Journalists drew attention to mentioning a new Android feature from Google that they found on the website of application developers for the operating system. Judging by the description, Android 13 will support saving multiple phone numbers on a single electronic SIM card (eSIM). Thus, the authors predict the possible disappearance of physical SIM cards.
“The ability to use multiple profiles in one eSIM will make life much easier for people who want to switch between networks of multiple carriers,” the experts said. Also, the potential abandonment of physical SIM cards would significantly reduce operators’ cost for telecom equipment. In addition, smartphone manufacturers will be able to give up the SIM card slots and fill the free space with a larger battery.
Journalists emphasized that the two phone numbers are often used by consumers who divide conversations on their smartphones into personal and business. The authors asked Google for comment, but did not receive a quick response. Android 13 is expected to be announced on May 11.
