And maybe leave some extra room for smartphone manufacturers to utilize too.<\/p>\n<p>Through a feature called Multiple Enabled Profiles (MEP), the search giant wants to assign two carrier profiles to a single eSIM and easily switch between networks. Google is reportedly basing the new feature on a patent filed in 2020, which describes a splitting of the existing SIM interface into two digital connections. There have been reports in the past that Google is testing it on an engineering Pixel hardware.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/04\/android-13-dual-esim\/-1200w5\/gsmarena_000.jpg\" alt=\"Android 13 may allow two carrier connections on one eSIM\"\/><\/p>\n<p>In turn, this could allow manufacturers to get rid of the SIM card slot as a whole leaving room for some extra hardware. We could see the return of microSD cards or we could see slightly bigger batteries too.<\/p>\n<p>Even though the source believes that the feature will debut with Android 13, it&#8217;s actually not intrinsic to Android. It can be implemented on iOS and even Windows.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-source\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.esper.io\/android-dessert-bites-19-esim-mep-android-13-9683475\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"source-image\">https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/04\/android-13-dual-esim\/-952x498w6\/gsmarena_000.jpg<\/div>\n<div class=\"source-link\">https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/android_13_may_allow_two_carrier_connections_on_one_esim-news-53822.php?rand=119<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Android 13 may allow two carrier connections on one eSIM According to Esper, Google is working on an Android 13 feature that would potentially be a game-changer for people using two SIM cards on a single phone.
