FAQs
eSIM works only on phones that have an embedded eSIM chip built in at the factory. Compatible models include iPhone XS and newer, Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer, and Google Pixel 2 and newer. Phones built before 2018 and most budget Android handsets do not have the chip. HelloRoam works on any carrier-unlocked phone from the eSIM supported phones list.
Your phone shows eSIM support in its settings. On iPhone, go to Settings, General, About, and check for an EID number. On Android, dial *#06# and look for an EID next to your IMEI. If an EID appears, the phone has eSIM hardware. It also needs to be carrier-unlocked before you can install a HelloRoam plan.
Phones built before 2018 cannot use eSIM. The embedded chip must be present from the factory and no software update can add it later. Older models such as iPhone X and earlier and Samsung Galaxy S10 and earlier simply do not have the hardware. To use HelloRoam, you need an eSIM supported device from 2018 onwards.
Not all iPhones have eSIM. The iPhone XS, XS Max, and XR released in September 2018 were the first, and every model from iPhone 11 through iPhone 16 supports it. The iPhone SE (2nd gen, 2020) and SE (3rd gen, 2022) also work. iPhone X, 8, 7, and 6 do not. iPhones sold in mainland China and certain Hong Kong variants lack eSIM even on newer hardware.
Google Pixel phones support eSIM from the Pixel 2 through the Pixel 10, including the Pixel Fold and Pixel 9 Pro series. The GSMA certifies Pixel devices under global embedded SIM standards. Pixel 7 and newer can run two eSIMs at once with no physical SIM card. Your Pixel must be carrier-unlocked to install a HelloRoam plan.
The Honor 200 Lite does not support eSIM. Honor reserves eSIM for select flagship models sold outside China. Budget and mid-range Honor handsets, including the 200 Lite, use a physical SIM card only. If you need an e SIM compatible phone for a trip to Australia, the UK, or Japan, check our full device list for a compatible model.
The Honor 50 does not support eSIM in most markets. Honor keeps eSIM on select premium models sold outside China. The Honor 50 runs on a physical dual SIM setup instead. If you are heading to London, Tokyo, or Bali and need mobile data, you will want an eSIM compatible handset to use a HelloRoam plan.
iPhone 13 supports eSIM on all four models: iPhone 13, 13 mini, 13 Pro, and 13 Pro Max. Apple made the iPhone 13 the first iPhone to run two active eSIMs at once without a physical SIM card. HelloRoam eSIM plans work on all iPhone 13 models across 175+ countries. Your iPhone 13 must be carrier-unlocked to install a third-party eSIM.
iPhone supports eSIM from the XS, XS Max, and XR released in September 2018 onwards. Every iPhone 11 through 16 model includes eSIM, along with the iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generation). What iphones support esim? Every i phone from XS onward supports it. iPhone X, 8, 7, and 6 do not have eSIM hardware. Your iPhone needs iOS 12.1 or later and must be carrier-unlocked to install a HelloRoam plan.
Reno 14 international variants support eSIM in markets outside China as of early 2026. Chinese domestic models of the Reno 14 typically lack eSIM hardware. Check the regional version of your handset before buying. HelloRoam works with Reno 14 models that are carrier-unlocked and have eSIM enabled in Settings.
The LG V40 ThinQ does not support eSIM. LG never included eSIM hardware in the V40 series, and LG shut down its smartphone business in 2021. No future update adds eSIM support. If you need an e-sim supported phone for your OE or a trip to Australia, you need an Apple, Samsung, or Google device.
Checking eSIM compatibility takes about 30 seconds. On iPhone, open Settings, then General, then About, and look for an EID number. On Android, dial *#06# and check whether an EID appears alongside your IMEI. An EID confirms the phone has eSIM hardware. Your device also needs to be carrier-unlocked to run a HelloRoam plan.
