| Installation | Users need to manually insert or remove the SIM card to switch carriers or phone numbers. | Users can download and activate multiple carrier profiles digitally through Over-The-Air (OTA) updates. |
| Switching | Traditional SIM cards can be lost, damaged, or stolen. | Switching carriers or phone numbers can be done seamlessly through the device's settings without needing to replace a physical card. |
