"Rapidly Growing Number of Connected Devices Worldwide to Spur the eSIM Market Worldwide"

The eSIM market worldwide is expected to grow with a CAGR of 25.6% during the forecast period. Embedded SIM (eSIM) are the next generation SIM cards, directly embedded in a device such as smartphones, laptops, tablets, wearables and other mobile devices. Unlike conventional SIM cards, eSIM incorporate a reprogrammable chip; this allows the user to switch between networks over-the-air without any need for physically replacing the SIM card. Embedded SIM cards offer numerous benefits over conventional SIM cards including their rugged nature, small size, secure & interoperability, easier handling for mobile network operators (MNOs) and several others. The market growth is highly driven by the rapidly growing number of connected devices worldwide. Ericsson projects over 29 Bn connected devices by 2022, of which over 18 Bn devices will be related to IoT. Of these over 70% of the devices are expected to rely on cellular technology for communication. As a result, eSIM market holds immense potential for growth in the near future.

"Rapidly Growing Number of Connected Devices to Ensure Dominance of Consumer Electronics Segment"

In 2017, consumer electronics segment led the market with more than 1/4th of the total market size, in terms of value and volume. Consistent proliferation of consumer electronic devices including smartphones, laptops, tablets and wearables among others is the most prominent factor supporting the segment growth. Wearables are among the most promising applications of eSIM due to strict requirement of small size SIM card. Apple, Inc. is one of the first companies to embrace eSIM with an aim to add seamless connectivity to its Apple Watch Series 3 and 4. Apple’s iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max are other products featuring eSIM. Subsequently, more number of consumer electronics & mobile devices manufacturers are expected to turn towards eSIM cards as an effort to provide seamless and convenient connectivity to their customers.
