eSIM Check

Pixel 10 Series eSIM support

Yes — all 5 models in the Pixel 10 Series support eSIM. A restriction applies to 3 of the 5 models, detailed below.

Checked against the 5 Pixel 10 Series entries in our device database. This generation is one generation behind the current Pixel 11 Series, but eSIM support does not expire: an older model that shipped with the hardware keeps it.

What this means in practice

On Pixel, eSIM is under Settings › Network & internet › SIMs › Download a SIM instead. Pixel phones have carried eSIM since the Pixel 2, which makes them one of the safest Android families for travel eSIMs. Since the Pixel 7 the phone holds multiple downloaded profiles and switches between them without re-scanning a QR code.

Check your own device

A model list tells you what the hardware can do. It cannot tell you whether your particular unit is carrier-locked, or whether it is a regional variant sold without eSIM hardware. Run the free check on the phone itself — it reads the eUICC chip directly and answers in a few seconds.

Frequently asked questions

Do all Pixel 10 Series models support eSIM?expand_more
Yes. All 5 models listed on this page — Google Pixel 10, Google Pixel 10 Pro, Google Pixel 10 Pro XL, Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold, Google Pixel 10a — carry eSIM hardware. Note: eSIM-only in the US; nano-SIM + eSIM elsewhere.
Can I use an eSIM and a physical SIM at the same time on the Pixel 10 Series?expand_more
Outside the US, yes: one nano-SIM plus one eSIM, or two active eSIMs. US models of the Pixel 10, 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL (and of the Pixel 11, 11 Pro and 11 Pro XL) have no SIM tray: they run two eSIMs instead. The Pro Fold and the Pixel 10a keep a nano-SIM tray in the US too.
How many eSIM profiles can a Pixel 10 Series model store?expand_more
Recent Pixel models store multiple downloaded profiles and switch between them without re-scanning a QR code.
Why does my Pixel 10 Series model not show the eSIM option?expand_more
Three causes account for almost every case: the unit is a regional variant sold without eSIM hardware, the phone is locked to a carrier that has not provisioned eSIM, or the software is too old. The free check reads the chip directly and tells you which applies.
