Does iPhone 15 support eSIM?

Hi there! I’m Gohub, and I’m here to answer your question about whether the iPhone 15 supports eSIM

Yes, the iPhone 15 supports eSIM, a new technology that is replacing the traditional physical SIM card.

eSIM stands for embedded SIM card. It is a tiny chip that is built into your device and allows you to download and activate cellular plans from your carrier without having to use a physical SIM card.

eSIM offers a number of advantages over traditional SIM cards, including:

  • Convenience: eSIM makes it easy to switch carriers or data plans without having to worry about losing or damaging a physical SIM card. You can simply download and activate a new plan from your carrier’s website or app.
  • Security: eSIM is more secure than traditional SIM cards because it is more difficult to remove or replace. This makes it more difficult for thieves to steal your phone and use it on a different network.
  • Space savings: eSIM is much smaller than a traditional SIM card, which frees up space inside your device for other components, such as a larger battery or better camera.

eSIM is still a relatively new technology, but it is quickly gaining popularity among carriers and device manufacturers. The iPhone 15 is just one of many new devices that support eSIM.

Important Note: iPhone eSIM compatibility depends on the country where you purchase your device.

Country eSIM compatibility Explanation
USA eSIM only You will not be able to use a physical SIM card in an iPhone 15 purchased in the USA. Instead, you will need to activate your cellular service with a supported carrier using eSIM.
China mainland, Hong Kong, and Macao Physical SIM only If you purchase an iPhone 15 from any of these regions, you will need to use a physical SIM card to activate your cellular service. eSIM is not supported on iPhone 15 devices purchased from China mainland, Hong Kong, or Macao.
Rest of the world Single physical SIM and dual eSIM You can use either a physical SIM card or eSIM to activate your cellular service on an iPhone 15 purchased from the rest of the world. You can also have multiple eSIMs active on your iPhone, but you can only use one eSIM at a time for cellular data.

What is eSIM?

eSIM stands for embedded SIM. It is a digital SIM card that is embedded in a device, such as a smartphone, tablet, or wearable. eSIMs allow users to activate cellular plans without having to use a physical SIM card. This can be beneficial for users who travel frequently or who want to be able to switch between different carriers easily. Benefits of eSIM There are several benefits to using eSIM, including:
  • Convenience: eSIMs are more convenient than physical SIM cards because they do not require users to swap out cards when they want to change carriers or travel to a different country.
  • Space savings: eSIMs take up less space than physical SIM cards, which can free up room for other components in a device.
  • Security: eSIMs are more secure than physical SIM cards because they are not as susceptible to theft or damage
How to use eSIM To use eSIM, you will need a device that supports eSIM and a cellular plan that offers eSIM support. Once you have these, you can activate your eSIM by following the instructions provided by your carrier.

      Really really good service

      Really really good service. I activated the sim but cant connect to the internet , so I deleted the esim and tried to re-activate. This sim can be activated ONCE only, and they write clearly on the sim cover but I didnt see it. Then I contact to the customer service and they made me a replacement which is, i think, i should buy another one. Thank you so much for your kindness

      I had subscribed for the esim in the middle of our Japan trip and it did not disappoint! I got their response within 30 minutes from subscribing, setup was quick and connectivity was very stable and speed was fast! Will subscribe again!

      Purchased E-sim for Malaysia

      Purchased E-sim for Malaysia. Received confirmation email fast and activation was smooth. Their whatsapp customer service was responsive when I encounted a problem (due to the local telco poor network coverage), and the staff walked me through troubleshooting and eventually managed to solve my issue. Will purchase e-sim from them for my next trip.
