What are the major mobile networks available for a travel eSIM in Slovakia?

In Slovakia, the primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are:

Orange Slovensko: A subsidiary of Orange S.A., offering extensive mobile services and covering 99% of the population.
Slovak Telekom: Part of the Deutsche Telekom Group, providing a wide range of mobile services with substantial market presence.

In addition to these MNOs, Slovakia hosts several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs), such as Tesco Mobile, which operates on the O2 network. MVNOs provide mobile services by leasing access from major carriers. However, most travel eSIMs rely on MNO infrastructure rather than MVNOs.
