HP Elite Folio 13 and eSIM: what to know

The HP Elite Folio 13 is a Windows laptop whose cellular features depend on the configuration. eSIM can only be used on versions with the built-in 5G/LTE modem, so a Wi-Fi-only model cannot use it. The number of profiles you can store, and whether you can use a physical SIM alongside it, depends on that configuration, so check your exact model.

Add the eSIM: open Settings > Network & internet > Cellular, then choose Manage eSIM profiles and Add a new profile.
Find the EID: if your configuration supports eSIM, the EID appears in the eSIM profiles section of the Cellular settings. If you cannot see it, your model probably has no eSIM.
Scan or enter the code: a laptop has no phone-style camera flow, so keep the activation code or LPA text from your email ready to paste in.
Travel tip: install the profile on Wi-Fi before you leave, and keep data roaming switched on only for the travel eSIM.

With an eSIM Prime travel eSIM, install the profile before your trip and activate it when you arrive. Your phone keeps your main number and WhatsApp, while the laptop gets its own data connection.
