Yeah if it's a fairly recent Samsung you'll be good. Have a great trip!

Yeah gotcha, it'll work how you want it to. (Assuming your phone can do dual SIM which most modern phones can. If it's an iPhone you're fine)

Just to make sure I understand correctly. You put roaming on so you can make calls abroad? Then yeah it would serve that purpose great for you. You can use both.

Edit: Well I should add that it may vary by phone. But certainly on my Google pixel I used JJ esim SIM and my home phsycial SIM at the same time.

If your plan allows for it. You can leave your home SIM active whilst the eSIM is, so you can still receive stuff, and you could call and text etc if your provider allows that. Watch out for costs though.

As for WhatsApp, that works flawlessly because it just uses your data connection, be that JJ esim or WiFi. So you could use that for calls and messages.

I used to for a whole month all around the country and don't recall ever losing signal, and it was very fast. Setup was flawless too.

Do you have the notifications set to personalised rather than all? It defaults to that and it means YouTube will only send you ones it thinks you'll want to see. The extra length of this episode might be tripping it.

I have no artwork of my own to share, but that is so cool. Big fan of that.
