(Telecompaper) Samsung has announced that its new Samsung Gear S2 classic 3G will be the first consumer device in the market to be equipped with a GSMA-standardised eSIM. An embedded SIM card (eSIM) allows users to connect to a 3G network from the operator of their choice and perform quick functions without being closely tethered to their phone. Samsung said it has worked with global operators and SIM vendors to implement an eSIM compliant to GSMA Consumer Remote SIM Provisioning (RSP) architecture. The Gear S2 classic 3G equipped with GSMA-compliant eSIM will be available from March.
