Model level answers have limits, especially with grey imports and regional variants. To test the actual Pixel 9 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.
