- Android phones could soon be able to back up and restore SIMs —likely eSIMs — through Google One device backups.
- Backing up and restoring eSIM data through the cloud would simplify switching devices or recovering from a broken phone.
Most Android flagships these days support eSIMs, which are pretty convenient compared to physical SIMs. However, if you use an eSIM and somehow end up with a broken phone, you’d be quite stuck getting back network access without the help of your carrier. Unlike a physical SIM, there is no easy option to move an eSIM from an old, broken phone onto a new one. Thankfully, it seems Google is working on a solution for Android phones, as Google One device backups could soon include SIMs.
