Is the Huawei P30 Compatible with eSIM?

No, the Huawei P30 does not support eSIM. The Huawei P30 lite or Huawei P30 Pro also do not support eSIM. However, eSIM technology is rapidly growing, and more Huawei models support it, such as: Huawei P40, Huawei P40 Pro, Huawei Mate 40 Pro, and Huawei Pura 70 Pro. If you’re unsure whether your phone is compatible, you can always check our list of compatible phones.

How to Check if Your Huawei Is eSIM Compatible?

To confirm that your phone is compatible, follow these steps: Go to Settings > Go to Mobile Networks > Go to SIM Management > You will see the option to add eSIM: if you see this option, your phone is compatible with eSIM.

To keep in mind

  • The Huawei P40 Pro+ and P50 are not compatible with eSIM, apparently due to limitations imposed by their ceramic casing.
  • Huawei models only allow one eSIM to be installed at a time, and in dual SIM the second slot is disabled. Therefore, two physical SIMs cannot be used simultaneously with the virtual SIM card.

Troubleshooting Tips

What to Do If You Already Have an eSIM and Discover That Your Huawei is Not Compatible

  • You can use your eSIM on another compatible device.
  • Save the eSIM for the next trip, as they do not expire.
  • You can also give it to a friend or family member who has a compatible device.
