Google's Pixel 10 series will ditch physical SIM card slots in the US, following Apple's lead. The Pixel 10, 10 Pro, and 10 Pro XL will rely solely on eSIM technology in the US, allowing for two active eSIMs and storage for eight or more. This change is not impacting international versions or the Pixel 10 Pro Fold. Google highlights improved eSIM support within Android, making the transition smoother for users. While there may be initial adjustments for users accustomed to physical SIMs, eSIM offers advantages like easier international service and potential cost savings.
