Market Definition
An embedded SIM, or E-Sim, is a small chip component that cannot be removed. It’s a programmable SIM card that’s physically connected in smartphone’s motherboard. E-Sim cards are found in a wide range of consumer products, such as smartphones, wearables, and computers. They are also included in smart meters, medical IoT devices, home automation, security systems, connected cars, IoT asset tracking devices, and handheld POS (Point of Sales) systems.
North America E-Sim Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:
Drivers
-
RAPID ADOPTION OF IOT-CONNECTED DEVICES IN CONSUMER ELECTRONICS AND M2M APPLICATIONS
IoT devices, which include numerous devices on the Internet of things, are nonstandard computing devices that may connect wirelessly to a network and transmit data (IoT). IoT entails expanding internet connectivity to a variety of conventionally "dumb" or non-internet-enabled physical items and daily things in addition to regular devices, including desktops, laptops, smartphones, and tablets. These gadgets may connect and communicate online since they are technologically embedded. They can also be watched over and managed from a distance.
-
INCREASING DEMAND FOR CONNECTED CARS IN THE AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY
Traffic control is another common area where M2M communication can be seen. A traffic system collects data related to the speed and volume of the traffic with the help of various sensors and sends this information across the computers that control the devices, such as signals and lights. The cameras installed on the traffic signals also collect data about the vehicles not following the traffic rules and send pictures to the software, which then sends challan receipts to the defaulters via the number registered in the traffic department. Through this, the entire information of the driver can be taken out, i.e., address, age, and sent challan directly to their phone number, no matter the driver's current location since E-Sim works North America.
Opportunities
-
THE INCREASING USE OF IOT AND THE LAUNCHING OF 5G TECHNOLOGY
E-Sim is considered a promising future to develop cognisant with IoT and 5G technology. There has been great awareness regarding the developments in E-Sim in the market among consumers. E-Sim is not just an evolution in SIM card technology from physical to digital; it is promised to have a great impact and value addition on the Internet of things (IoT). E-Sim has enabled many original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to advance their products in building a range of products that are flexible and has North America deployment, especially in Industrial IoT, which includes sensors, processors, systems, and platforms; E-Sim's will be used by businesses to create greater operational efficiencies and other industry-specific use cases.
-
GROWING NEED FOR INNOVATIVE CONSUMER ELECTRONICS
Innovative product designs in consumer electronics, such as smartwatches, have created ample opportunities to adopt E-Sim technology on a mass scale. The sleek product designs, often needing to be fully sealed and waterproof, could not adequately accommodate traditional SIM cards and their SIM slots. E-Sims offered a seamless solution. The continued development of smart devices, such as tablets and smartphones with sleeker, smaller designs, will fuel the rise of E-Sim technology in consumer devices.
Restraints/Challenges
- SECURITY THREATS ASSOCIATED WITH E-SIM
Nowadays, data security has become more important than ever, leaving many people curious about who handles data security. If the phone stops working, runs out of battery, or falls and gets a crack on its screen, communication is brought to a complete standstill with E-Sims. Traditional SIMs, meanwhile, can be quickly pulled out of the affected phone and into another backup device or secondary phone.
- LACK OF CONSUMER AWARENESS
The E-Sim market continues to grow; while this is true, it has been found that consumer awareness about technology worldwide is significantly less. Things are moving fast for the E-Sim market to gain pace; many wireless device manufacturers are launching a product with embedded SIM cards. But for this market to gain real traction North America, it will be of utmost importance for the consumers to become aware of the technology and its advantages. This poses a major challenge for the manufacturers to overcome for wide scale adoption.
Covid-19 Impact on North America E-Sim Market
Covid-19 has had a negative impact on practically every business and industry. The commercial circumstances that Covid-19 has created are unprecedented, and various organisations are scrambling to react.
