Does Samsung Galaxy A9 series support eSIM?

No, the Samsung Galaxy A9 series, including models like the A9 (2016) and A9 Pro (2017), cannot use eSIM. These phones are designed to work with regular SIM cards and do not support eSIM technology.

eSIM is a newer feature that allows you to use mobile plans without the need for a physical SIM card, but it is only available in newer Samsung models starting from the Samsung Galaxy S20 series.

If you want to use eSIM, you have two options:

  1. Get a Special SIM Card: You can get a special SIM card that adds eSIM functionality to your device.
  2. Upgrade to a Newer Samsung Model: Consider upgrading to a newer Samsung Galaxy phone that supports eSIM. You can find a list of eSIM-compatible Samsung phones to explore suitable options.

Important Note: eSIM availability may vary depending on where you are and the mobile service provider you use.
