Concurrently using eSIM and SIM

Hello, friends! Could you help me with this issue? I have 3 phone numbers: 1 eSIM and 2 SIM. I use them on my iPhone 11 and iPhone 14. I would like to transfer them to my iPhone 14 for using it lightly. Can I do it? Can I use 2 eSIM and 1 SIM concurrently?

Thanks

iPhone 14

You can save all 3 SIMs (1 Physical SIM and 2 eSIMs) but can only use two at a time.

YES, you open Settings ➡️ Mobile Data/Cellular and then select an active line and turn it OFF. You can then select another and turn it ON.

I am assuming that you are in the US region. If not then respond back with the region/country that you are located.


  1. All iPhone 14 Models in the US have only eSIM capability. These models do not have a physical SIM card tray.
  2. You can only have TWO eSIMs (Lines) active at the same time.


So, knowing the above information, you will have to convert all your physical SIM cards to eSIMs. You can setup your iPhone 14 with all three of your lines with eSIMs. The catch here is that you can have any two eSIMs active at the same time.
