Can Xiaomi phones use eSIM?

Yes, but only specific models and mostly global (non‑Chinese mainland) versions.

1) Fastest check: dial *#06#

  • Open Phone → dial *#06# → press call
    • If you see an EID (32‑digit number) → supports eSIMimage
  • If only IMEI(s) appear → no eSIM

2) Check in Settings (HyperOS/MIUI)

  • Path: Settings → Mobile networks / SIM cards & mobile networks
  • Look for: Add eSIM / Manage eSIM / Use eSIM
  • If present → supports eSIMimage

3) Critical note: region matters

  • Chinese mainland versions: almost never support eSIM (even if global variant does)
  • Global/Hong Kong/Taiwan/International versions: many flagships do

4) Common eSIM‑capable Xiaomi models (global)

  • Xiaomi 12T Pro, 13/13 Pro/13 Ultra/13T/13T Pro
  • Xiaomi 14/14 Pro/14 Ultra/14T/14T Pro
  • Xiaomi 15/15 Ultra
  • Redmi Note 13 Pro/13 Pro+, 14 Pro/14 Pro+

If you want, I can walk you through exactly where to look in your specific MIUI/HyperOS version.
