Changelog

• 2026-08-20Tablet and wearable coverage extended, both directions. Added the 11 Galaxy tablets Samsung's own eSIM list names (Tab S11, S10+/S10 Ultra, S10 FE/FE+, S9/S9+/S9 Ultra, S9 FE/FE+, Tab Active5/Active5 Pro) — and, because that list starts at the Tab S9, added Galaxy Tab S8/S8+/S8 Ultra as honest "no eSIM" entries, correcting a claim several third-party lists get wrong. Added 5 Garmin watches, all honest "no": the fēnix 8 Pro and Forerunner 945 LTE do carry an embedded SIM, but it is locked to Garmin's own subscription and no travel eSIM can be written to it; the fēnix 8, Forerunner 965 and 955 have no cellular radio at all. realme and ZTE were researched and deliberately left out — neither publishes an official eSIM device list, and the third-party sources contradict each other.
• 2026-08-10Full re-verification of every entry against manufacturer sources. Added 71 devices released through Aug 2026 (iPhone Air/16e/17e, Pixel 10 series, Galaxy S26 & Z Fold 8 series, Xiaomi 17 series and more). Corrected eSIM-only labeling to be region-accurate (US-only for iPhone 14–16; 12 regions for iPhone 17), dual-eSIM counts (Galaxy S24+, Pixel 7+), and — importantly — 22 entries that do NOT support eSIM (all previous ASUS/Huawei/Nothing listings, several Xiaomi/OPPO models) now say so honestly. Reference-page upgrades (anchors, source links, citation guidance) shipped the same day.
