Verify your exact unit in 10 seconds
Model level answers have limits, especially with grey imports and regional variants. To test the actual iPhone 11 Pro in your hand:
- Open the dialler and dial *#06#.
- Look for an EID: a 32 digit number shown alongside the IMEI.
- EID present = the phone has eSIM hardware. No EID = no eSIM.
You can also check Settings > General > About for an EID entry.
