hi, I've got a SIM card at the moment but buy my new iPhone from apple every year so I know eventually need to go onto an esim at some point, but would like to know. if I setup my iPhone with a esim, with all my app installed etc. and I want to setup my iPhone brand new from scratch with no app installed etc but still keep my esim, is this possible?
thanks in advance

You can use your old phone to set up the new one. If you want to set it up
as new, select DO NOT TRANSFER DATA. It will activate as “new”. It will also ask if you want to transfer the eSIM to your new phone.
Be sure to do this BEFORE you erase the old phone.

Sure. When you reset the phone, you will be given the option to keep or delete the eSIM information on the phone. You would choose the option to keep the eSIM information.
On the other hand, if you were resetting the phone to sell it or give it to someone, you would choose the option to delete the eSIM information on the phone.
Yes
Can I keep my eSIM when setting up a new iPhone?
