Product Definition:
An embedded Subscriber Identity Module (e-SIM) is a type of SIM card that is built into the device. This means that there is no physical SIM card required and the user can simply activate the e-SIM by scanning a QR code or entering a code provided by the carrier.
The main advantage of using an e-SIM is that it allows users to switch carriers without having to swap out their SIM card. This can be helpful when traveling abroad, as users can simply sign up for a local carrier's plan and continue using their phone without any interruption.
Another benefit of e-SIMs is that they are more secure than traditional SIM cards, as they cannot be easily copied or stolen.
e-SIM Card:
An e-SIM is a mobile subscriber identity module which can be used in place of traditional SIM cards. It is an electronic circuit that stores information about the mobile phone number and associated services. An e-SIM card can store data similar to that of a normal SIM card, but with added capabilities such as allowing the user to change their personal information or add additional lines on their account from their computer or any other device connected to the internet.
Chip:
The chip is a small electronic component that can be programmed to perform specific functions by the manufacturer. The size and complexity of the chip depend on its intended use. For instance, a smart card contains an embedded microprocessor which performs all operations including authentication and encryption for secure communication between two parties. An e-SIM is similar to a smart card in functionality but it is used in mobile phones instead of transportation cards or banking cards.
Application Insights:
The telecommunication application segment led the global e-SIM market in 2017 and is projected to expand at a revenue-based CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030. The segment growth can be attributed to the growing adoption of smartphones and wireless data connectivity among various end users across the globe. Moreover, operators are increasingly deploying e-SIM cards in their wireless network infrastructure as it offers better security features than conventional SIM cards.
Telecommunication companies such as AT&T Inc., China Mobile International Limited, Deutsche Telekom AG, Hutchison Global Communications Ltd., Korea Telecom Co., Ltd., Midea Group Company (China), Siam Commercial Joint Stock Co., Ltd.; have been manufacturing and supplying e-SIM products for mobile phones across various regions worldwide which is expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
The North American region dominated the global market in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the presence of prominent players such as Qualcomm Inc., and Intel Corporation. These companies are engaged in providing advanced solutions for e-SIM technology, which has led to a significant increase in adoption across various industries. Moreover, increasing demand for connected cars is also expected to drive regional growth over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to emerge as one of the fastest-growing regions during the forecast period owing to increased smartphone penetration and growing application areas across various verticals including automotive, consumer electronics, manufacturing etc.
Growth Factors:
- Proliferation of connected devices and the Internet of Things (IoT)
- Increasing demand for mobility and flexibility in telecom services
- Rapid growth in data traffic and rising network congestion
- Shift towards cloud-based services and virtualization
- Emergence of new business models such as pay-as-you-go, subscription, etc
