What is the best option to make use of my shared data plan on iPad Air4 gen with sim slot? Nano SIM or eSIM? Have spare Bell 5G sim. What is involved to do this and does it cost anything to activate either of these?

It becomes a matter of choice & which mobile plan you choose to go with.
Simply put, an eSIM offers you more flexability.
An eSIM is a digital version of the physical SIM card—identifying your device virtually to provide network connection. It’s programmable remotely via software and is built into newer smartphones, tablets, smart watches, etc., meaning you wouldn’t have to go purchase a new SIM card. They’re basically space-saving game changers for connectivity.
Since they’re embedded in devices and are programmable remotely, it can open a whole new world of flexibility when it comes to managing your phone and service plans. You can add plans, add a new number, and even connect to a different carrier.
If your device is equipped with eSIM, you can have more than one line hooked up to the same device, giving you the convenience and control to toggle between those lines straight from your phone or tablet. This saves you money because with an eSIM, you don’t need two separate devices.
If you’re traveling internationally, you no longer need to buy a second physical SIM card when you arrive at your destination. eSIMs let you easily add an international plan to your device that starts working the moment you arrive in another country, giving you hassle-free flexibility.
In terms of costs, you will need to contact Bell Mobility at 310-BELL or by calling 1-800-667-0123
