The easiest way to do this is by dialling <strong>*#06#<\/strong> into your keypad. If you then see a pop-up that includes an EID number on the screen, your device should be compatible. The move comes just in time for the next refresh of Apple&#8217;s iPhone series, which is expected to include at least one eSIM-only model.
