So I don't know if I have to unprovision the T-Mo eSIM if I want to try to use a prepaid with 5G data.
To revert to 5G service with dual sims, you only need to temporarily turn off one of the lines. In iPhones this is just a few clicks in the Settings/Cellular Menu. I have two, 5G carriers active and frequently speedtest them this way since it is so simple. There are rumors on the interwebs that dual 5G access will be available soon for iPhones. Apple has been silent on this matter.
