@Lucek2050 : Activating an eSIM demobilises its physical SIM. It's 1 or the other, not both.

@Lucek2050  Activating the eSim moves the information from the physical SIM card to the eSim. You can only have one sim with a number whether that’s a physical sim or an eSIM.  If you want to use a sim in a different device then you need to get another SIM card and that will have its own number
