Apple
Apple pioneered eSIM adoption in smartphones with the iPhone XS in 2018. In 2022, Apple made a bold move by releasing US iPhone 14 models as eSIM-only devices, eliminating the physical SIM tray entirely. Apple devices support up to 8 eSIM profiles with 2 active simultaneously.
Google was an early eSIM adopter, introducing support with the Pixel 2 in 2017. As a key GSMA member, Google has been instrumental in eSIM standardization. Pixel phones offer seamless eSIM activation through Google Fi and support dual-SIM configurations with eSIM + physical SIM.
Samsung
Samsung introduced eSIM support with the Galaxy S20 series in 2020. Samsung's flagship Galaxy S and Z series phones support eSIM alongside physical nano-SIM, offering flexible dual-SIM configurations. Galaxy Watch models with LTE also feature eSIM connectivity.
