    You won’t, it’s a conscious trade off. Some people never put a sim or esim in their phone and have a separate dumb phone for calls, or separate hotspot

    This vide explains the trade offs, reason, and approach of havjng a separate device for data: www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyirQOCUUK8

  Just that the cheap ones suck. I got a two-pack from Walmart and the first one I used started falling apart in weeks.

  I’d get one handmade off Etsy. They’re a little pricier, but the less expensive ones are garbage.
