iPhone 14 Plus and eSIM: what to know

Yes, the iPhone 14 Plus supports eSIM. It can store several eSIM profiles (typically eight or more) and use two lines at once, for example one eSIM alongside another eSIM or a physical SIM. In the United States the iPhone 14 series is eSIM-only with no SIM tray, while in many other markets it still has a nano-SIM slot plus eSIM.

Where to add it: go to Settings > Mobile Service (or Cellular) > Add eSIM, then scan the QR code or enter the details manually.
Finding your EID: open Settings > General > About and scroll down to "EID". You can tap and hold to copy it.
Label your lines: name each plan (for example "Home" and "Travel") and choose which one is used for data under Mobile Service.
Travel tip: turn off Data Roaming on your main line while abroad to avoid unexpected charges.

With an eSIM Prime travel eSIM, install the profile before you leave while on Wi-Fi, then switch it on for data when you land. Your main number stays active, so you can keep receiving calls and using WhatsApp as usual.
