When selecting Other it takes you to Ubigi.me where you can sign up with Ubigi for €10 per month for unlimited data in Europe (data will slow down after 100GB).
The process is seamless from there and the eSIM is set up. I had hopes that they would enable the SIM Reader so I can use my current provider (O2), but this is a nice option for now.
Ubigi then allows you to use the eSIM for data only (no phone calls) and from what I can tell the benefits you get are the Hotspot feature, as well as the YouTube and the Bundesliga app. The Video app interestingly was already working without eSIM.
Overall, for €10 per month, this may not be worthwhile for everyone. I will see what my experience is.
