Check in settings
- 1Go to Settings → Network & Internet (or 'Connections' on Samsung)
- 2Look for 'SIM Manager', 'SIMs' or 'Mobile Network'
- 3If you see an 'Add eSIM', 'Download a SIM' or 'Add mobile plan' option, your device supports eSIM

eSIM support is confirmed by the presence of an EID (Embedded Identity Document) number in your phone's settings. No EID = no eSIM support.
