巴西 eSIM

Most flagship smartphones released since 2018-2019 support eSIM, including iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, and Samsung Galaxy S20 series and newer. Tablets, smartwatches and an increasing number of laptops also support eSIM. The fastest way to verify your specific device is to check Settings , if you see "Add eSIM" or "Add cellular plan" as an option, you're compatible.

eSIM compatibility is now standard across the high-end smartphone market and rapidly spreading into mid-range devices. Cellesim works with any unlocked, eSIM-capable device , no special configuration needed beyond scanning the QR code we send you.

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.

What to check before buying a travel eSIM

3. iOS version: iOS 12.1 or newer for full eSIM support.
4. Android version: Android 9 or newer typically supports eSIM, though it depends on the manufacturer.
5. Region-specific variants: some Samsung models sold in Hong Kong or China are dual physical SIM with no eSIM , verify your specific model number.

Travel-friendly phones that don't support eSIM

Tip: if your current phone doesn't support eSIM but you travel often, an unlocked, mid-range eSIM-capable phone (e.g., Pixel 7a, iPhone SE 3, Samsung Galaxy A55) makes an excellent secondary travel device , pair it with a Cellesim plan and you have a full mobile internet kit for any destination.

不！这是我们 eSIM 的最大优势。在巴西购买实体当地 SIM 卡（从 TIM、Claro 或 Vivo）是出了名的困难，因为它需要CPF (Cadastro de Pessoas Físicas)才能激活，而游客却没有。我们的 eSIM 是一项漫游计划，绕过整个官僚流程。您可以在线购买并立即连接。 

 此特定计划仅在巴西境内有效。这是一个关键点。如果您正在游览伊瓜苏瀑布，当您过桥前往阿根廷一侧时，您的连接将会停止。为了实现无缝的多国旅行，我们强烈推荐使用拉丁美洲地区 eSIM，以便在巴西和阿根廷保持联系。 

 您必须设定期望。您将在所有主要城市（里约热内卢、圣保罗、萨尔瓦多）和亚马逊主要城市马瑙斯获得出色的4G/5G覆盖。但是，一旦您在亚马逊河上的船上或在偏远的丛林小屋中，您必须预计信号会间歇性或完全不存在。这款 eSIM 适用于城市，不适用于丛林深处探险。 

您必须设定期望。在狂欢节高峰期间（特别是在桑巴德罗姆或拥有 100 万人的bloco），里约的本地网络处于极端压力之下。虽然我们的 eSIM 使用最好的本地网络（例如 Vivo/Claro），但您应该预计在这些高峰时段数据会比正常情况慢。它仍然比拥挤的公共 Wi-Fi 更可靠地发送 WhatsApp 消息。 

 为了在这个幅员辽阔的国家为您提供最佳的覆盖范围，我们的 eSIM 卡连接到巴西的优质一级网络，通常是 Vivo 或 Claro。这些被广泛认为是拥有最广泛 4G 覆盖范围的最佳提供商，确保您从科帕卡巴纳海滩到圣保罗商业区保持连接。 

 大多数现代手机都可以，但您必须在此处查看我们的具体列表：eSIM兼容设备，以便在购买前 100% 确定。 

是的。优步和 99 是里约热内卢和圣保罗最安全的出行方式，因此可靠的数据对于避免街头出租车至关重要。 

对于大多数美国和欧盟运营商来说，巴西处于高成本漫游区，因此与此 eSIM 相比，使用您的家庭 SIM 卡会产生巨额每日费用。 

是的。由于英语在豪华酒店之外并不广泛使用，因此拥有谷歌翻译数据对于在当地餐馆和商店进行沟通至关重要。
