距离9月19日iPhone Air在国内正式发售仅剩一周的时间，这款手机买了能否在中国大陆市场正常使用成了大家热议的话题。 没有实体卡的eSIM 能实现一部手机多个号码 齐鲁晚报·齐鲁壹点记者 魏银科 孙佳琪 9月10日凌晨，苹果推出iPhone 17系列智能手机。让人没想到的是，这次苹果发售新机，却燃爆了联通，原因是号称"苹果史上最薄机型"的iPhone Air为了 实现其轻薄设计，取消实体SIM卡槽，全球统一采用eSIM，官网显示目前仅有联通线下营业厅可以办理eSIM业务。也就是说，iPhone Air装不了实体卡， 想要使用需要先办一张eSIM虚拟卡，联通目前作为国内唯一一家拥有eSIM授权运营商，却无手机eSIM办理先例，所以国内尚无运营商开展手机eSIM卡业 务。 "终于把最薄的iPhone给盼来了，但仔细一看，居然只能用eSIM卡，且目前仅支持联通，国内现在有这样的业务吗？手机买回来能用吗？有点魔幻了。"准 备换手机的果粉乐乐和朋友聊到。 所以问题来了，什么是eSIM？eSIM即嵌入式SIM卡（Embedded Subscriber Identity Module），是由全球移动通信协会（GSMA ...

Core Viewpoint - The recent controversy over the minimum recharge amount of 50 yuan on third-party platforms raises concerns about consumer rights and market competition, as major telecom operators have stopped offering lower recharge options, potentially infringing on consumer choice [1][2]. Group 1: Industry Impact - Telecom operators have cited contract expirations and restrictions on third-party channels as reasons for the increased minimum recharge amount, which has led to negative public sentiment regarding consumer rights [1]. - The cancellation of lower recharge options limits consumer choices and may be viewed as a monopolistic practice that undermines market competition [1][2]. Group 2: Legal Framework - The Anti-Monopoly Law defines "market dominance" and outlines the implications of abusing such a position, including the ability to control prices and restrict market entry for competitors [1]. - The Consumer Rights Protection Law grants consumers the right to choose products and services freely, and the imposition of a minimum recharge amount could be seen as a form of "forced transaction" [2]. Group 3: Potential Consequences for Operators - If operators are found to abuse their market position, they could face administrative penalties, including orders to cease illegal activities, confiscation of illegal gains, and fines ranging from 1% to 10% of the previous year's sales [3]. - Operators may also be liable for civil damages if their monopolistic actions cause losses to others, with compensation covering actual and expected losses [3]. Group 4: Recommendations for Operators - Instead of raising the minimum recharge limit to boost revenue, operators should focus on improving service quality and innovation to build consumer trust and ensure sustainable growth [3].
