eSIM technology is convenient and simplifies mobile plan management. Whether you’re a first-time user or just curious, this step-by-step guide will help you set up your eSIM on any compatible smartphone.



🔍 What Is an eSIM?


An eSIM is a digital SIM card embedded in your device. There’s no need to insert anything — you simply download a profile to activate your mobile plan.



🛠️ Steps to Set Up an eSIM on Your Smartphone



1️⃣ Check if Your Phone Is Compatible


✅ Make sure your device supports eSIM (e.g., iPhone XR or newer, Google Pixel 3+, Samsung Galaxy S20+).

⚠️ Note: Some models sold in specific countries (like China) may not support eSIM.



2️⃣ Buy the Right eSIM for Your Needs


📱 Go to eSimDual.com and choose a plan that fits your destination and usage.

🎫 You’ll receive a QR code or activation link by email.



3️⃣ Install the eSIM on Your Device


On iPhone:

Go to Settings > Cellular > Add Cellular Plan

Scan the QR code

Follow the prompts to complete the setup


On Android (Samsung, Pixel, etc.):

Go to Settings > Connections > SIM Manager > Add Mobile Plan

Scan the QR code or enter the activation info manually

Confirm and activate



4️⃣ Activate and Configure Your eSIM


📶 Make sure your eSIM line is enabled in mobile settings

🔄 Restart your phone if needed

🌍 Turn on data roaming if you’re traveling abroad



⚠️ Useful Tips

📶 If activation fails, check your Wi-Fi or mobile connection
