Add eSIM capability to any Android smartphone

any one had luck with purchasing an eSIM adapter ?

Haven't used it but from what I've seen, esim.me works though it might just be better and more feasible to just upgrade to an esim compatible phone at this point if you do regular travel. If you travel now and then or like once a year, you probably don't need to upgrade.

just bought one plus 13R last month thinking it had an esim ( it said so on GSM arena) later found out that there are different models one has it other doesn't and I ended up getting the one that doesn't. New phone is not an option for me, at least not for another 2 years.
 
I have received one from 5ber.esim. It took 2 months and I needed to pay customs at the PO of R36 to receive it since it is sent as a "small parcel". But it was the lowest cost option I could find at around $10 after a coupon.

My phone sees it, and the app does as well. But I haven't needed to load a sim yet - though cannot see why it won't work. (I thought this sim locked you into their "walled garden" but not so sure - it does support scanning QR codes to load eSIMs, so in theory any provider with a QR code should work. Something to try in the future...)

It would depend on how often you travel. If once or twice a year, just get a physical sim at the airport. It will only really be a major inconvenience, if you travel regularly in which case you can consider esim.me

I recently got the esim adaptor from 9esim.com.
My phone is a redmi note 12.

Works well and one can apparently load at least 50 profiles on it. I have got the following loaded on it.
airmobile and 2 other mtn numbers as well as 2 international esims. Works well, at least the local ones. Have not tried the internationals yet.
Just a point to note:
My physical sim (vodacom just used for voice) needed to be moved to slot 2 so that it works seamlessly.
All in all a good buy
