Solved: iPhone 12 Dual SIM

Tiberius · ‎16-11-2020

Hi. I am planing to purchase iPhone 12 Dual SIM. I am carrying 2 phones at the moment and I would I would like the more elegant option of 1 phone, 2 sims. I am at the moment on pay as you go, will upgrade to pay monthly, from my understanding this is needed for the eSIM. My second SIM would be a nano SIM from a foreign provider. My questions are: can the new O2 eSIM my default mobile number? Also can the the O2 eSIM be used while being default number for iMessages and FaceTime ? Thanks in advance.

You can choose either sim to be the default and change it at anytime.

iMessage and Facetime will only work on the default sim.
