Galaxy Z Fold 2 and eSIM: what to know

Yes, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 supports eSIM. It works as a dual-SIM phone with one physical nano-SIM and one eSIM, so you can keep your home line active while using a travel data plan. The phone can store more than one eSIM profile, but only one eSIM is active at a time next to your physical SIM.

Where to add it: open Settings > Connections > SIM manager, then tap Add eSIM. On some software versions, the option is called Add mobile plan.
Find your EID: go to Settings > About phone > Status information, or dial *#06# to see the EID on screen.
Choose the right lines: in SIM manager, set your eSIM as the Mobile data line and keep your main SIM for calls and texts.
Travel tip: turn on data roaming for the travel eSIM only, and leave it off on your home SIM to avoid roaming charges.

With an eSIM Prime travel eSIM, you can install the profile on your Z Fold 2 before you leave and activate it when you land. Your main number stays on your physical SIM, so you can still receive calls and keep using WhatsApp.
