Does the Huawei Mate 40 Pro have eSIM?

Depends on the version · check your unit

The Huawei Mate 40 Pro has eSIM in some versions only: the market the unit was made for and its firmware decide. The check takes a minute and is more reliable than any list. If the support is there, a travel profile installs like on any other phone.

That is a change from the Huawei P30 Pro: on that 2019 model the answer is no. The Huawei Pura 70 Pro that follows in 2024 depends on the version. Its 2020 shelf-mates, Huawei P40 Pro, Huawei P40 Pro+, Huawei Y5p, carry the same answer.

Only the global version in the single-slot configuration. Chinese versions have no eSIM.

An "Add eSIM" entry means it is supported. Dial *#06#: a phone with eSIM shows an EID among the numbers.

Settings beat any list: the same model ships with and without eSIM depending on the country.

Common questions

sim_card Can I install a travel eSIM on the Huawei Mate 40 Pro?

Yes, if Settings offers an entry to add an eSIM. Check that before buying a plan: without the entry there is nowhere to install the profile.

layers How many eSIMs does the Huawei Mate 40 Pro store, and how many work at once?

On Android the number of stored profiles depends on the model and firmware. Usually a physical SIM and one eSIM work at the same time. The SIM manager in Settings shows the exact layout.

Not on eSIM. Huawei P40 Pro, Huawei P40 Pro+, Huawei Y5p answer the same way in this catalogue, and each of them depends on the market the unit was built for. Where units differ is the market they were made for, and that is what Settings shows.
