I have a vodafone esim and smarty physical sim card in my iphone 13. Works perfectly. Also I think but ime not sure, you may be able to have more than 1 esim. If smarty did esim I would ditch vodafone esim....Can't be that hard surely........

    did you need to buy a Vodaphone plan in addition to your smarty one in order to enable an e sim?

    I guess there might be a couple issues (at least) delaying universal eSIM deployment in the UK. 

     a) The mobile network operators need to invest to support remote provisioning et cetera. 
     b) The mobile number porting process needs to be updated, which requires a consultation et cetera.
