Important: eSIM support depends on both hardware and software. A device may have eSIM hardware but have it disabled by the carrier (carrier-locked devices). Always verify your device is unlocked before purchasing an eSIM plan.

Carrier-locked devices: If you purchased your phone through a carrier on a contract, it may be locked to that carrier's network. Contact your carrier to request an unlock before using a travel eSIM. Most carriers unlock devices free of charge after the contract period.
