What is a eSIM used for?

Can you use your original sim and phone number and a eSIM with a different number on your phone at the same time?

If you have an iPhone XR, XS, XS Max, or any iPhone 11, you can only use the physical SIM or the eSIM, but you cannot use both.

If you have an iPhone 12 or iPhone 13, you can use the physical SIM and eSIM at the same time.
