iPhone eSIM list: Which models have it?

Curious which iPhones have eSIM support or if your current iPhone has an eSIM you can take advantage of? Read along for a look at the complete iPhone eSIM list for which models have the embedded digital SIM and which ones have dual eSIM support.

iPhone has used a variety of SIMs (subscriber identity modules) over the years. Apple first started iPhone with mini SIM, then moved to micro SIM with iPhone 4 and 4S, and it moved to the nano SIM size with iPhone 5 until today.

However, a convenient option in recent years has been the addition of an eSIM (embedded SIM). This makes it easier for customers to connect with carriers and use two different lines with one iPhone. With it being digital, you don’t need to replace a physical card when changing carriers. Some providers like T-Mobile even let you instantly start a trial with eSIM.
