Yes, physical sim can be inserted through the sim slot.
On the other hand, esim is on the phone itself. You can convert the esim using the dialog website. ( they verify and send you a QR to scan )

Yes, you can transfer the esim to a new phone. ( carrier support needed , As my knowledge only apple support for Dialog now )

I personally use dual e-sim on my S24 Ultra as it supports that function. The downside is youcannot swap the sim into another phone because esim is baked to the phone.

Yes, we can transfer the eSIM to a new Samsung phone from an Old Samsung phone. But the carrier support is needed.

Apple supports both Mobitel and Dialog eSIM, but I think for Samsung only Mobitel support right now.

Some of the pros and cons are.
Pros
1. eSIM provides seamless connectivity across different regions without needing to change the SIM card.
2. eSIM can be activated online within a few minutes without visiting a store.
3. Can enable and disable and keep like 3 or 2 eSIMs and switch between them when we want.
4. Since eSIM is embedded in the device. The risk of loss or damage compared to the physical SIM is less.

Cons
1. All devices are not compatible with eSIM technology.
2. Can't install the SIM directly to another phone because eSIM is embedded in the phone.
3. Some users may require technical support when registering an eSIM.

I use both esims and a physical sim and its very easy. I think the latest iphones don't even have a sim slot only esims. I recently was able to get a esim online from mobitel with no hassle at all.

If you need more information please ask, I have been using one for many years now

Yes bro its absolutely possible without going to an arcade. I can share a tutorial if u need it, but it's very simple, especially if u are going from one phone to another in the same ecosystem.

Dialog doesn't control esim transfers bro, it's done on the phone. Dialog doesn't need to be involved in the transfer at all.

Hi bro.. I think you already got a lot of good answers for your question. I'm also using Hutch e-sim since the S23 Ultra. It was hassle free to switch from physical sim to esim. I have requested it through an email from Hutch and they request some additional information for verification purposes. That's all. Got it done all online and within a day. So the biggest advantage as I can with Esim is by there's a high chance to find your device if its stolen or lost because someone can't simply remove your esim like a physical sim. Sorry for the late reply 😊
