OPPO, through cooperation with Thales, launched the world’s first eSIM function that supports 5G SA on the latest flagship 5G device OPPO Find X3 Pro. eSIM is an embedded SIM. It does not need to be plugged and unplugged like a traditional SIM card but is directly embedded in the terminal.
The SA (Independent Networking) architecture is one of the mainstream architectures of the future 5G network, which can achieve lower latency and higher flexibility. Xia Yang, Senior Director of OPPO Carrier Products, said: “Through technical cooperation with Thales this time, we have jointly built Find X3 Pro into the world’s first terminal products to introduce 5G SA eSIM functions.”
Thales is a provider of hardware-based eSIM and eSIM connection management. OPPO’s first smartwatch with a built-in cellular network function, the OPPO Watch series, uses the eSIM solution provided by Thales.
