Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G and eSIM: what to know

The Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G supports eSIM alongside a physical nano-SIM, so you can run two lines at once in dual SIM mode. Several eSIM profiles can be stored on the phone, but usually only one eSIM is active at a time. Availability can depend on the version sold in your country, so check that your unit shows an eSIM option.

Add an eSIM: go to Settings > Connections > SIM manager (called SIM card manager on some One UI versions) > Add eSIM, then scan the QR code.
Find your EID: open Settings > About phone > Status information, or dial *#06# to see the EID next to the IMEI numbers.
Choose your lines: in SIM manager, set your travel eSIM for mobile data and keep your main SIM for calls and SMS.
Travel tip: turn on data roaming for the travel eSIM line only, and switch it off on your home SIM to avoid surprise charges.

With an eSIM Prime travel eSIM, install the profile on Wi-Fi before you leave and activate it when you land. Your main number stays on your physical SIM, so WhatsApp and incoming calls keep working as usual.
