Can I use an eSIM as a primary sim card and not secundary?

Can I use an eSIM as a primary sim card and not secundary? I mean, without any physical sim card on my phone?

Yes. As explained in the support document you came from:


On iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone XR, and later, you can use a physical nano-SIM for a cellular plan and an eSIM for one or more other cellular plans. If you don't have a nano-SIM and your carrier supports it, an eSIM can serve as your only cellular plan. The eSIM provided by your carrier is stored digitally in your iPhone.
