塞舌尔 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.

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.

是的！这是最重要的问题。我们的 eSIM 连接到本地网络，这些网络在所有三个主要岛屿上都有良好的覆盖范围：马埃、普拉兰岛和拉迪格岛。您可以在Vallée de Mai（普拉兰岛）或Anse Source d'Argent（拉迪格岛）发布照片，就像在马埃岛的博瓦隆海滩发布照片一样轻松。 

是的，非常明显。塞舌尔的大多数豪华度假村都收取非常高的 Wi-Fi 费用（例如，每天 15-25 欧元），而且速度通常很慢。同样，对于大多数美国/英国/欧盟运营商来说，塞舌尔是一个“异国情调”的地点，这意味着您将支付尽可能最高的国际漫游费（通常为 14 美元/天）。预付费 Cellesim eSIM 是一次性费用，比两者便宜得多。 

 为了让您在岛上享受最佳速度，我们的 eSIM 会连接到塞舌尔的优质提供商，通常是 Airtel (Airtel-Tigo) 或大东电报局 (CWS)。这可确保您获得最快的 4G/LTE 速度，这样您就不会陷入天堂般的缓慢 3G 连接。 

是的，在大部分旅程中。Cat Cocos渡轮路线距离岛屿相对较近。当离开马埃岛并接近普拉兰岛时，您会收到很强的信号，并且在 60-90 分钟的行程中，信号通常很稳定，允许您发送消息或浏览内容（尽管流媒体可能会在开放水域中缓冲）。 

是的，100%。塞舌尔 (SEZ) 是一个很小的机场，当地的 SIM 亭可能会排起长队，特别是在大型国际航班刚刚降落的情况下。购买实体 SIM 卡还需要强制护照注册流程。我们的 eSIM 是 100% 数字化的，无需 ID 注册，并且可以在您起飞前安装，因此您在着陆时即可连接。 

 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。 

不，优步不在塞舌尔运营。您需要可靠的数据才能在 Google 地图上查找当地出租车调度号码或在上车前协商票价。 

是的。通常，在被联合国教科文组织列为世界遗产的普拉兰岛五月谷的入口和游客中心会有信号，让您可以分享著名的可可海棕榈树的照片。 

绝对地。马埃岛和普拉兰岛的道路狭窄、陡峭且蜿蜒。 Google 地图的可靠数据对于安全找到像 Anse Intendance 这样的隐藏海滩至关重要。 

是的。在参观库里厄斯岛的巨龟保护区时，您通常会拥有良好的网络连接，该岛距离普拉兰岛北海岸仅有很短的船程。
