Phone that support Multiple eSims

[PM-User2]

Hi 

I see now that we can port eSims to existing numbers.  I currently have 3 phones and I would like to merge them and am hoping it might be possible now.  Are there any Android phones in Canada that currently support multiple eSims?   My two biz numbers are forwarded to a service which transcribes to email so I am fine if only one line is active at a time.

As far as I could tell the new Samsungs support one Sim and one eSim but are there any Android phones in Canada that support multiple eSims?  

I believe that iPhone 13 and up can do this, but I am not sure I am ready to change from Android to iPhone just yet.

Thanks for any information.

I've had great luck with Amazon (only if shipped and sold by Amazon), but also eBay and Best Buy, believe it or not. Make sure to look for a Seller with a strong reputation and feedback, and a money back guarantee/return policy on eBay. Look for a Make an Offer option, and always offer 20% less than asking to start. Always check for brand new in box (sealed) vs. refurbished/like new/etc. Avoid Marketplace sellers at Best Buy.

yes, as of now, only iPhone 14 can do dual active eSIM, others are still 1 active physical and 1 active eSIM, maybe S24 will join iPhone 14 for dual active eSIM

Where to buy phone? I can advise where NOT to buy.  Not to buy from marketplaces (eBay, Kijiji, FB, Bestbuy Marketplace, Walmart Marketplace), there are quite some blacklisted phones out there, you don't want to test your luck  🙂

This is great information.  So where is the best place to buy phones? I have been buying cheapo phones from Costco, but if I can get all 3 lines on one phone, I can splurge on one good one.  2 of my phones need to be replaced in the next little while anyway.

Hello @PM-User2 , Same with Google Pixel phones -- you can install multiple eSIMs, but can only have one active at a time.

Yes, but I can only have one on and use one at a time.

That is cool.  4 eSims 😁

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and I have 4 Public Mobile e-SIMs installed. 

I can only use one at a time, but I can add 5-7 I believe.
