Most Android flagships these days support eSIMs, which are pretty convenient compared to physical SIMs. However, if you use an eSIM and somehow end up with a broken phone, you’d be quite stuck getting back network access without the help of your carrier.

Thankfully, it seems Google is working on a solution for Android phones, as Google One device backups could soon include SIMs.
