An eSIM is a digital SIM built into your phone. No plastic. No swap. Most phones since 2018 support it — LL-DC installs on your phone in seconds, with QR or manual setup as alternatives. Confirm your device below.
An EID listed next to your IMEI? Your phone supports eSIM. No EID means SIM-only — but any eSIM-ready device activates an LL-DC plan in under a minute.
Don't see your model? Run *#06# above — an EID means you're good. For brand-new devices not yet listed, support confirms in minutes.
Twenty seconds, four paths. Each one leads to an eSIM option that only appears on supported devices.
Settings → General → About → scroll to Digital SIM (EID). If an EID is shown, your iPhone supports eSIM.
Settings → Connections → SIM manager. If an “Add eSIM” option appears, eSIM is supported on your device.
Settings → Network & internet → SIMs → Add SIM → “Download a SIM instead?” — this option only appears on eSIM-capable Pixels.
Open Settings and search for “eSIM”, “SIM manager”, or “Mobile network”. Any option that lets you download or add a SIM digitally confirms eSIM support.
Coverage, activation, dual-SIM, region locks — every common eSIM question, in one place.
