Does Sony support eSIM?
10 Sony models do. Xperia 1 IV, 5 IV and 10 IV onwards. The Xperia 10 VII has eSIM on the XQ-FE54 model only. Two checks for yours: it must support eSIM, and it must not be locked to a carrier.
The 30-second check
- Open the phone dialler and type
*#06#. - If an EID (a 32-digit number) appears, the phone supports eSIM.
- Check it is carrier-unlocked: on iPhone, Settings › General › About › Carrier Lock says “No SIM restrictions”. A locked phone refuses other networks. How to check on Samsung, Pixel and other phones.
