Does the OnePlus 11 Support eSIM?

Absolutely! The OnePlus 11 offers dual SIM capabilities. You can combine an eSIM with a physical nano-SIM card, or use two eSIM profiles simultaneously, giving you flexibility for managing multiple numbers or carriers.

Activating an eSIM on your OnePlus 11 is a straightforward process. You'll typically receive an activation QR code or manual details from your carrier. Here’s a general guide:

• Go to Settings: Navigate to 'Settings' on your OnePlus 11.
• Network & internet: Tap on 'Network & internet' or 'Mobile network'.
• Add eSIM/SIM: Look for an option like 'Add eSIM', 'Add SIM card', or a plus (+) icon next to 'SIMs'.
• Scan QR code or Enter details: Choose to 'Scan QR code' and point your camera to the code provided by your carrier, or select 'Enter activation code manually' to input the details. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the activation.

Using an eSIM on your OnePlus 11 offers several advantages. It provides more convenience as you don't need to physically insert a SIM card when changing carriers or plans. It's also great for travellers, allowing you to easily switch to local plans without opening your phone, and it frees up the physical SIM slot if you need it for another purpose.

While eSIM technology is widely supported on the OnePlus 11 and gaining traction, some limitations might still exist in 2025, although less common. Not all mobile carriers worldwide offer eSIM services, so it's best to confirm with your preferred provider. Additionally, certain advanced network features might occasionally require a physical SIM, depending on the carrier's infrastructure.
