Belarus is witnessing a surge in the use of eSIM technology, with more and more users transitioning to digital SIM cards. According to data provided by MTS over the course of a year, the number of eSIM users in Belarus has increased by almost a third.
The data does not specify the total number of eSIM users in the country, but MTS has noted the trend of Belarusians connecting digital SIM cards. Samsung and Xiaomi are among the top three brands for eSIM usage in Belarus, with iPhone owners being the most frequent issuers of eSIM.
Digital SIM cards have gained the most popularity among users of various iPhone models, particularly the iPhone 15. The technology is most popular among subscribers aged 31 to 40.
One notable aspect of eSIM usage is the increase in online traffic consumption. MTS has reported that eSIM users consume an average of 14% more traffic compared to the average subscriber. However, there is no specific publicly available data detailing how popular eSIMs are among iPhone users in Belarus or their online activity compared to average subscribers.
eSIM technology is gaining popularity worldwide due to its convenience, especially among travelers, remote workers, and digital nomads. The flexibility of eSIMs, such as instant activation via QR codes, multi-SIM management on devices like the iPhone 14, and no need for physical SIM swapping, make it an attractive option for many.
