How to verify eSIM support on your device

1. iPhone: Settings → Cellular → look for "Add eSIM" or "Add Cellular Plan". You can also dial *#06# , if you see an "EID" (32-digit number), your phone has eSIM hardware.
2. Android: Settings → Connections (or Network & Internet) → SIM Cards → look for "Download a SIM instead" or "Add eSIM".
3. EID check: most eSIM-capable Android phones show EID in Settings → About Phone → Status.

Tip: Even if your phone supports eSIM hardware, it must be unlocked (not carrier-locked) to use third-party eSIMs like Cellesim. Most phones bought outright are unlocked; phones from carrier instalment plans may require unlocking after the contract is paid off.

Almost every flagship smartphone released since 2019 supports eSIM, making it ideal for international travel. Compatible models include iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer, plus a growing list of mid-range devices. If your phone has Settings → Cellular → "Add eSIM", you're ready to use a Cellesim plan abroad.

Travellers benefit most from eSIM because it eliminates the airport SIM-card queue, removes the need to swap your home SIM out, and lets you keep your usual phone number active for SMS verification. A Cellesim travel eSIM activates the moment you land , no shop visit required.

Hati-hati. Meskipun Monaco secara geografis dikelilingi oleh Perancis, Monaco bukan anggota Uni Eropa (UE). Banyak operator Eropa dan Inggris mengecualikan Monaco dari zona "Roam Like at Home" mereka, dengan mengenakan tarif selangit (terkadang $10+ per MB). Membeli eSIM Cellesim Monaco lokal adalah cara teraman untuk menghindari tagihan kejutan, sehingga menjamin Anda mendapatkan harga tetap untuk data berkecepatan tinggi. 

 Paket khusus ini hanya berlaku di Monaco. Karena tidak ada bandara di Monako, kemungkinan besar Anda akan mendarat di Nice (Prancis) dan melakukan perjalanan dengan kereta api, mobil, atau helikopter. Jika Anda memerlukan konektivitas selama transfer dari Nice, kami sangat merekomendasikan eSIM Regional Eropa kami, yang mencakup Prancis dan Monako dengan lancar tanpa perlu berpindah jaringan. 

 Untuk memenuhi standar kemewahan Kerajaan, eSIM kami terhubung ke penyedia lokal premium, Monaco Telecom. Hal ini memastikan Anda mendapatkan kecepatan tercepat (seringkali 5G) baik saat berjalan-jalan di Kasino Monte Carlo, menonton kapal pesiar di Port Hercules, atau mengunjungi Istana Pangeran di Batu. 

Ya. Selama acara dengan lalu lintas tinggi seperti F1 Grand Prix Monaco atau Monaco Yacht Show, jaringan fisik bisa menjadi padat. Namun teknologi eSIM seringkali mengutamakan lalu lintas data. Meskipun kecepatan dapat berfluktuasi dalam jumlah besar, memiliki eSIM lokal khusus memberi Anda keandalan koneksi yang jauh lebih baik daripada roaming di jaringan mitra asing. 

 Sebaiknya instal sebelum Anda tiba. Perbatasan antara Perancis (Cap-d'Ail/Beausoleil) dan Monaco hanyalah sebuah persimpangan jalan. Sinyal Prancis Anda mungkin terputus secara tiba-tiba saat Anda memasuki Monaco. Dengan mengaktifkan eSIM Cellesim Anda terlebih dahulu, ponsel Anda akan secara otomatis beralih ke jaringan Monaco saat Anda melintasi perbatasan, sehingga GPS dan pesan Anda tidak terganggu. 

 Sebagian besar ponsel modern memilikinya, namun Anda harus memeriksa daftar spesifik kami di sini: Perangkat yang Kompatibel dengan eSIM untuk memastikan 100% sebelum membeli. 

Secara umum, tidak. Penjemputan Uber diatur secara ketat dan sering kali dilarang di wilayah Kerajaan. Anda memerlukan data yang andal untuk menavigasi ke jalan perbatasan di Beausoleil atau Cap d'Ail (Prancis) agar berhasil memesan perjalanan Anda. 

Ya. Cakupan sangat bagus di jalan-jalan sempit Monaco-Ville (The Rock), memungkinkan Anda melakukan streaming langsung Pergantian Penjaga atau mengunggah pemandangan panorama Port Fontvieille secara instan. 

Ya. Biasanya Anda akan mendapat sinyal kuat di teras atap dan dekat pintu masuk Museum Oseanografi, cocok untuk berbagi foto pemandangan tepi tebing dan akuarium. 

Ya. Meskipun penggunaan seluler dibatasi di dalam ruang permainan, data yang andal sangat penting di Casino Square dan Café de Paris untuk memposting video supercar mewah dan arsitektur ikonik.
