To activate the Jio eSIM on the above-given models you need to follow the given below steps:
 

First, you need to head to the messaging app on your smartphone.

You need to send an SMS writing GETESIM <32 Digit EID> <15 Digit IMEI> to 199. 

To check for your IMEI and EID numbers you have to head to the Settings app on your smartphone. 

Click on the General option and select About. 

Here you will get both IMEI and EID numbers. 

Once you send the message on 199, you will receive a 19 digit eSIM number along with eSIM profile configuration details.

Now you need to type another message stating SIMCHG <19 digits eSIM number>

and send it to 199. 

You will receive an update on eSIM after 2 hours.

Once you have received the message, share your confirmation by sending ‘1’ to 183 as SMS.

Now you will get an automated call to confirm your Jio number. You need to share the 19 digit eSIM number. 

Once the confirmation is done, your eSIM services will activate. 

At this stage, your existing SIM will stop working and you need to configure your eSIM to use the services. 

You will receive a notification to configure your eSIM profile on your smartphone. Tap on the notification and install the data plan. 

Now click on the continue when you see Install Data Plan on your screen. 

After this, your Jio eSIM will be activated on your smartphone.

Just visit the main Jio store in your area they will help you. Don't try anything posted in online or YouTube for your safety.

What are advantages of this? S22 can accept physical sim and hence the question

Nothing as such, adaption of new technology. Only benefit i can see is, physical sims after period of time get damaged or corrupted, esim will not have such issue
