To discuss the issue of battery consumption when using eSIM, the answer is: No, using eSIM will not cause your device to consume more battery or overheat.

However, if initially you are using only one SIM and add an eSIM to your device, the battery consumption will likely increase as the Dual SIM mode is activated.

Even using one eSIM and one physical SIM has been proven to be more energy-efficient than using two physical SIMs.

For versions that uses 2 eSIMs, the battery consumption will significantly decrease.

There's one more thing to note: when you are in an area with weak signal reception, the device will likely consume much more battery.

This is because, in weak signal conditions, the device will expend a considerable amount of energy trying to search for and amplify signals to ensure a stable connection for users.

Since the device is using a lot of energy in these conditions, the processors will also operate at higher power levels, leading to overheating and lagging issues.
