It’s not too early ! Free Mobile: Sim cards finally compatible with all smartphones

The telephone operator who exploded the prices of mobile subscriptions was surprisingly late in the question of the format of his SIM cards. A question that has just been resolved with (finally) a new triple division card.

Cards for newcomers

Free, with his boss Xavier Niel, still launched in a new fight, seems an economic player never too late. However, the fourth historic operator of French telecoms is also sometimes the victim of amazing archaisms, as was the case with the SIM card provided to its customers.

Indeed, the French company finally makes available to its customers a SIM card with triple cutting (for mini, microphone and nano-sim), an object available for years with its competitors like Bouygues or Orange. A possibility still very young, since it was only offered to new subscribers having subscribed to an offer on one of the terminals of the box from the second half of 2022.

New at Free

6 years of waiting

And if the offer is commendable, it comes a little late, with French people who for the most part are equipped with smartphones working only with a nano-sim. This delayer side of the firm founded by Xavier Niel has an aspect all the more astonishing than the E-SIM, advanced much more modern, is available for all customers of the box since last November November.

The boss of Free had already mentioned the question in 2017: “ We will come to triple cutting SIM cards, when we have settled the question of leveling of stocks. It’s just a matter of stock management. »It will thus have simply been six years to the French company to offer what was accessible to its competitors for many years. Will this opportunity please please the public, or will it be an opportunity to mock free for its delay ?

6 years ! Sacred stock to sell ..
And so far they did how people, cuts to the scissors ?

Bombing basta > We chose the type of SIM when ordering

There were 2 formats to choose on order. I no longer know which one had a cut. It was not the end of the world. The only thing ch … is if you changed your phone and you had to recommend a SIM. But often you go from nano to nano so not too much problem. In fact it would have the problem if you go from nano to microphone … but even with the cutouts must recommend. Basically a lot of noise for not much.

Bof at the same time, it’s been 6 years that there have been almost only nano Sims ..
And strongly that this damn piece of plastic disappears for ESIM, much more practical, ecological, adaptable and rapid !

We should ban Sims cards, an ecological scourge.

Pinkfloyd:
And strongly that this damn piece of plastic disappears for ESIM, much more practical, ecological, adaptable and rapid !
E-SIM disadvantages:
In the event of dysfunction, no way to know if it is on the phone side or operator => Passage through the operator’s customer service, who can take advantage of it to charge a troubleshooting if the problem was not on the other hand,
broken down phone => Not possible to temporarily put the SIM in another phone to remain reachable during repair time,
Possibility for the operator to charge certain telephone change (when it is necessary to reactivate the E-SIM on the new),
Not at all practical when you regularly switch from one phone to another (for example, I have a super robust and autonomous dumb for hiking, and so I switch the sim between it and my smartphone),
Possibility for the operator to decide which phone you have the right to have or not (when I bought my pixel 6 and changed operator at the same time, I wanted ‘Activate, my operator cannot support this phone … even though he sold it in his shop … It must have been resolved since, but I will not try the experience, which earned me several days without phone, and in the middle of bonus confinement …).
Or else, you should put the E-SIM on a SIM card to have all the advantages without the disadvantages

Oauis with the very old Sim or micro SIM phones it avoids buying an adapter but good today between the nano sim and the e-Sim it does not seem super useful.

Yes, I did this exactly with a free sim a year ago, no problem for me
Afterwards, on the order I hadn’t chosen the right one but I knew nothing about it

In the event of dysfunction, no way to know if it is on the phone side or operator => Passage through the operator’s customer service, who can take advantage of it to charge a troubleshooting if the problem was not on the other hand,
possible, but since it is software, 95% luck that it is coast operator
broken down phone => Not possible to temporarily put the SIM in another phone to remain reachable during repair time,
Your supplier has no website ? As with recup your PUK code
Possibility for the operator to charge certain telephone change (when it is necessary to reactivate the E-SIM on the new),
SIM replacement = 10 euro, I don’t see the change
Not at all practical when you regularly switch from one phone to another (for example, I have a super robust and autonomous dumb for hiking, and so I switch the sim between it and my smartphone),
It is an ESIM, therefore technically duplicable with a single subscription.
Possibility for the operator to decide which phone you have the right to have or not (when I bought my pixel 6 and changed operator at the same time, I wanted ‘Activate, my operator cannot support this phone … even though he sold it in his shop … It must have been resolved since, but I will not try the experience, which earned me several days without phone, and in the middle of bonus confinement …).
Because not yet deploy to grandle and therefore not standardized
Do not confuse the potential of a techno and the way we use it ..
It reminds me of the physical card at the Canal+time, now you put a card for your Netflix Abo ?

Pinkfloyd:
broken down phone => Not possible to temporarily put the SIM in another phone to remain reachable during repair time,
Your supplier has no website ? As with recup your PUK code
How the website of my operator allows me to remain reachable while waiting for repairing my phone ?
And if you speak to re -activation of ESIM on the emergency phone while waiting, well that the emergency phone must be compatible with ESIM (in general, it’s an old phone, so no), operators take advantage of it for invoice it.
Pinkfloyd:
Possibility for the operator to charge certain telephone change (when it is necessary to reactivate the E-SIM on the new),
SIM replacement = 10 euro, I don’t see the change
The change is that when you change the phone, you don’t need to replace your sim. While you often need to reactivate the E-SIM on the new phone ..
Pinkfloyd:
It is an ESIM, therefore technically duplicable with a single subscription.
You mean that we can have two phones at the same time on the same subscription without paying a double sim option ?
Incidentally, the little dumbphone and autonomous dumbphone for hiking, there is not one that is compatible with E-SIM…
Pinkfloyd:
Do not confuse the potential of a techno and the way we use it ..
Yes. And the problem is that a techno that gives operators the opportunity to charge things that they could not technically invoice before, we can fear the way they will use it ..

no you answer my comments so that it goes in your direction by thinking by definition that we will do it ripped.
I only answer from a technical point of view, what ESIM brings in addition to the physical sim.
For the double sim yes I have already seen that, one for the such, and the other duplicate to use on a tablet or laptop for example. (but of course the techno has to rest, which should have been done for years)

Pinkfloyd:
no you answer my comments so that it goes in your direction by thinking by definition that we will do it ripped.
” we are making “. Not “we’re going to be done”.
In any case at Orange. The activation of an E-SIM is € 10. If you cannot transfer it from the old phone to the new one (which is the case under Android currently, and will undoubtedly remain the case when you go from Android to iOS or vice versa), you must iron by a classic SIM then Bleed an E-SIM (because the activation of the new E-SIM on an existing line requires a code sent by SMS, so you must be able to receive it …). 10 €. And it’s not theory, it’s experience.
Pinkfloyd:
For the double sim yes I have already seen that, one for the such, and the other duplicate to use on a tablet or laptop for example
Curious to see which operator allows this, and especially how he manages (because the SIM is supposed to provide a unique user identifier on the network, so how they manage having two distinct devices connected with the same unique ID ?)).
Because at Orange, SFR or Bouygues, if you want a second ESIM for your watch or tablet, no question of cloning the original, you have to take the double sim option (x €/month when it is not included in the package) and activate a second ESIM (€ 10 at Orange when there is no promo). Exactly like with a classic double SIM. And with the passage of commercial and technical restrictions on the second SIM (commercial, it is often limited to the Internet, and a priori technical, even when it also authorizes the voice there are not SMS).
Pinkfloyd:
I only answer from a technical point of view, what ESIM brings in addition to the physical sim.
Well, in fact, technically, she brings about anything more, except not to have a tiny chip to slip into her phone. Well, and a little time saving in the event of a new subscription, because we don’t have to wait for delivery (although … when I subscribed in E-SIM, I received instantly by email it Qr of my E-SIM, but I still had to wait for the mail with the activation code).

Duplication for the wealthy user, space gain in electronics, displacement between telephone, sharing between device, “simplified” evolution, easy park management, plastic gain + copper + manufacturing + transport ..
SIM was obvious before because we stored in it, now it is completely useless and without interest.
In short, the “virtualized” always wins against “physical”.

Pinkfloyd:
And strongly that this damn piece of plastic disappears for ESIM, much more practical, ecological, adaptable and rapid !
Fodger:
We should ban Sims cards, an ecological scourge.
We should ban the smartphones, a larger ecological scourge ..
(What a great misfortune, 1cm² of plastic that we keep for several years …)

It’s a smart card, so not just plastic.
We should especially force manufacturers to finance Fissa an industrial recycling.

As Fodger says it is not just plastic, and there is manufacturing + transport
In addition to several years… If you stay for several years at the same operators, how many people changes supplier almost every year during promotions or when their first year of promo is finished ? We are talking about several million cards around the world.
The Smatphone There is no alternative product, the SIM (which is 32 years old I remind it) no longer has to be !

Pinkfloyd:
SIM (which is 32 years old I remind you) no longer has to be !
Of course it has a reason to be, your personal case is not that of everyone

I preferred the SIM Format Credit Card that I had in my Motorola in 1992 ! Less risk of losing it.
