Is the Motorola Edge 40 eSIM compatible?

Yes. The Motorola Edge 40 (2023) supports eSIM in its UK version.

Verified against the manufacturer and UK carrier sources. Data last updated 2026-07-23.

The detail and the caveats

Nano-SIM plus eSIM.

Motorola pattern: Every Razr flip phone from 2019 onward has eSIM in the UK (the 2019 Razr is eSIM only). The Edge series has eSIM from the Edge 40 generation onward; the Edge 30 family does not. Most Moto G phones are physical SIM only; UK exceptions with eSIM are the G34, G35, G53, G54, G55 and G85. The UK/EU G84 has no eSIM even though some other regions' variant does.

Dual eSIM: no, the Edge 40 runs one active eSIM at a time (usually alongside the physical SIM).

Verify your exact unit in 10 seconds

Model level answers have limits, especially with grey imports and regional variants. To test the actual Edge 40 in your hand:

  1. Open the dialler and dial *#06#.
  2. Look for an EID: a 32 digit number shown alongside the IMEI.
  3. EID present = the phone has eSIM hardware. No EID = no eSIM.

You can also check Settings > About phone for an EID entry.

A separate question

Is the Edge 40 supported on the ONSIM network? No

Whether a phone has eSIM and whether it works on a specific network are different questions. The Motorola Edge 40 is not on the ONSIM supported device list, so it will not work on the ONSIM network even if the handset itself supports eSIM. ONSIM is explicit that unlisted devices will not work and it is unable to troubleshoot them. A Virtual Landline (which diverts calls to the phone you already have, on any network) works with every phone.

Can I use two eSIMs at once on the Motorola Edge 40?

No. The Edge 40 supports eSIM, but only one active eSIM at a time. You can still run two lines by pairing the eSIM with a physical SIM in the tray.
