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.

Tergantung lokasinya. Di Ulaanbaatar dan pusat provinsi besar (pusat Aimag), Anda akan mendapatkan kecepatan 4G/LTE yang luar biasa. Namun, Gurun Gobi dan padang rumput yang luas sangatlah terpencil. Meskipun eSIM kami terhubung ke menara terbaik yang tersedia, sinyal bisa terputus-putus atau tidak ada sama sekali di area gurun yang dalam (seperti Bukit Pasir Khongor). Sebagian besar kamp wisata Ger terletak di dekat menara sinyal, namun kami sangat menyarankan untuk mengunduh peta offline sebelum meninggalkan kota. 

 Keandalan adalah segalanya di Mongolia. eSIM kami terhubung ke penyedia terkemuka di negara ini, biasanya Unitel atau Mobicom. Operator ini memiliki infrastruktur terlengkap di seluruh negeri, sehingga memberi Anda peluang terbaik untuk tetap terhubung baik saat Anda berada di Eagle Festival di Bayan-Ölgii atau mengunjungi Danau Khövsgöl. 

 Paket khusus ini hanya berlaku di Mongolia. Kereta Api Trans-Mongolia adalah perjalanan populer yang menghubungkan Rusia, Mongolia, dan Tiongkok. Setelah kereta melintasi perbatasan ke Rusia (Siberia) atau Tiongkok (Mongolia Dalam), koneksi Anda akan berhenti. Untuk perjalanan kereta api legendaris ini, kami sangat menyarankan untuk memeriksa paket eSIM Regional Asia atau Global kami untuk tetap terhubung di ketiga negara. 

Ya. GPS sangat penting untuk menjelajahi jalur tanah tak bertanda di Mongolia. eSIM kami memungkinkan Anda menggunakan Google Maps atau Maps.me. Meskipun Anda mungkin kehilangan sinyal di antara tujuan, memiliki koneksi aktif ketika Anda mencapai tempat yang lebih tinggi atau pemukiman sangat penting untuk keselamatan dan komunikasi dengan operator tur atau agen persewaan Anda. 

Ya. Kebanyakan kamp Ger tradisional tidak memiliki Wi-Fi, atau sangat lambat. Hotspot Pribadi (Tethering) didukung penuh di eSIM kami. Ini berarti Anda dapat mengubah ponsel Anda menjadi router dan berbagi data Anda dengan laptop atau teman di dalam Ger Anda untuk mengunggah foto malam berbintang atau memeriksa email sebelum tidur. 

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

Tidak, Uber tidak beroperasi di Mongolia. Anda memerlukan data yang andal untuk menggunakan UBCab, aplikasi taksi lokal terpopuler, untuk berkeliling Ulan Bator dengan aman dan menghindari kendala bahasa dengan pengemudi. 

Biasanya Anda akan mendapatkan sinyal yang kuat di gerbang desa Khatgal dan Hankh, sehingga Anda dapat berbagi foto "Mutiara Biru Asia", namun cakupannya menurun secara signifikan jika Anda menjelajah ke perairan atau pantai terpencil. 

Ya. Cakupan yang dapat diandalkan di Patung Berkuda Jenghis Khan yang besar di Tsonjin Boldog, memungkinkan Anda untuk menyiarkan langsung pemandangan panorama dari dek observasi di atas kepala kuda. 

Sangat. Jika Anda berkunjung pada bulan Juli untuk Naadam, data yang dapat diandalkan sangat penting untuk memeriksa jadwal real-time untuk acara gulat, panahan, dan balap kuda di Stadion Olahraga Nasional atau Khui Doloon Khudag.
