Contrary to popular belief, you can use eSIM phone plans without
needing a phone that supports eSIM.
Why would you want that? Many prepaid eSIM plans are very cheap
and can be bought ahead of travel, but most phones don't have an
eSIM chip built-in.
So how does this work?
The tl;dr is that eSIM is actually a specification that is
implemented by a UICC, or universal integrated circuit card.
Phones with eSIM support have an eUICC (embedded UICC) chip, but
there's nothing preventing a vendor from making a traditional
nano SIM-sized card with an eUICC that follows the eSIM spec.
These are called "removable eUICCs" and are actually used in IoT
devices, but their use in mobile devices is still somewhat new.
A few companies have popped up that sell you removable eUICCs,

, but it's also possible
to DIY your own removable eUICC.
There are tutorials online on how to take an off-the-shelf eUICC
chip, remove the original chip in a physical nano SIM, and then
weld the eUICC chip onto the nano SIM card. Some Chinese online
retailers also sell the finished product for much cheaper than
the aforementioned companies, but you can't just buy the
product, insert it into your device, and then download an eSIM
profile.
