Seamlessly Compatible: Unlock the Power of eSIM with Your Google Pixel Fold

Let's ensure it's not restricted to any specific carrier or network.

Open Settings on your Google device.
Go to "Network & Internet".
Find "Mobile network" or "SIM cards" (depending on your device).

If you see "eSIM cards" or "Add eSIM profile" option, your device is likely unlocked for eSIM.

Please note, certain carriers may have policies preventing unlocking within the initial six months of use.

*The following Google Pixel devices DO NOT have eSIM capability:

Devices originating from China, Hong Kong, and Macao do not support eSIM functionality.

Pixel 3a models purchased in Southeast Asia and through Verizon carrier.

Google Pixel Fold and eSIM: what to know

Yes, the Google Pixel Fold supports eSIM. It has a nano-SIM slot plus eSIM, so you can keep your home line on the physical SIM and add a travel eSIM alongside it. Several eSIM profiles can be stored on the phone, while two lines (one physical SIM and one eSIM, or two eSIMs depending on setup) are typically active at the same time.

Where to add it: open Settings > Network & internet > SIMs, then tap Add (or "Download a SIM instead?") and scan the QR code.
Finding your EID: go to Settings > About phone > SIM status (or look under "EID"), or dial *#06# and read the EID shown.
Data line: in the same SIMs menu, select the travel eSIM and turn on "Use SIM", then set it for mobile data and enable data roaming for that SIM.
Travel tip: install the eSIM on Wi-Fi before you leave, and keep it switched off until you land.

With an eSIM Prime travel eSIM on your Pixel Fold, you can install it before the trip and activate it on arrival. Your main number stays on the other line, so WhatsApp and calls keep working as usual.
