e-SIM on Apple Watch.

Priority — Wed, 12 Jul 2023 05:38:24 GMT

Is it possible to activate an Apple Watch under Cellular with a Public Mobile e-SIM Subscription Plan?

Of course it would have to be a 'New Activation' with a different phone number to set up the e-SIM, considering it still isn't available for my currrent account.

No. These cell watches are basically accessories to the main base plan. They need to be linked. Public doesn't offer that.

sorry, No

Apple Watch requires more than eSIM support on the carrier side, they need to invest a lot more for infrastructure for IMS/Call routing so the watch can receive and send calls. With such large cost, no Tier 3 provider is supporting Apple Watch (as well as Samsung Galaxy Watch, Google Pixel watch), and very likely, they won't in the future. So, check with Tier 2 and 1 providers for that
