Google Pixel Watch 2 LTE and eSIM: what to know

The LTE version of the Google Pixel Watch 2 uses eSIM for its cellular connection. It has no physical SIM slot, so there is no nano-SIM option on the watch. It is designed to run one cellular plan, which your carrier must support for smartwatches.

  • Where to add it: open the Pixel Watch app on your paired Pixel phone and look for the Mobile network (cellular) settings. You can also check Settings on the watch itself. Exact menu names can vary slightly by software version.
  • EID: look in the watch's About information in Settings, or ask your carrier, since they handle the watch's eSIM activation.
  • Travel tip: the watch's cellular plan is usually tied to your home carrier's smartwatch service. Abroad, the easiest approach is to let the watch stay connected through Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to your phone.
  • Before you go: make sure the watch is updated and paired with your phone.

For a trip, install your eSIM Prime travel eSIM on your paired phone before departure and activate it on arrival. Your main number and WhatsApp stay available, and the watch can keep receiving notifications through the phone connection.
