For me as well. I’ve just ordered a used Pixel 10 Pro so I’m going to give it a try. One inconvenience is that my current phone uses an eSIM which means that I cannot simply swap over and back if desired.

I’ll admit I am speaking from ignorance. I haven’t really worked with eSIM phones in this manner and assumed you couldn’t simply swap them like physical SIM cards.
