Motorola Edge 60 eSIM

Does the Motorola Edge 60 support eSIM?

Motorola Edge 60 eSIM compatibility

Yes, the Motorola Edge 60 supports eSIM. The device ships with nano-SIM + eSIM capability, though support is region-dependent. If you purchased your Motorola Edge 60 in North America, Europe, or most Asia-Pacific markets, you have eSIM functionality. Some regions—particularly where carriers haven't widely adopted eSIM—may receive versions with dual physical SIM trays instead.

Check your phone's packaging or the Settings menu under Network & internet > SIMs to confirm. If you see an option to "Add eSIM" or "Download a SIM," your Motorola Edge 60 has eSIM enabled.

Dual SIM on the Motorola Edge 60

The Motorola Edge 60 runs one physical nano-SIM and one eSIM simultaneously. You can keep your home carrier in the physical slot and add a travel eSIM for data abroad, or use two different numbers—one for work, one for personal calls. The device does not support dual eSIM; you'll always need at least one physical card if you want two active lines.

How to set up an eSIM on the Motorola Edge 60

Install your eSIM profile

Setting up an eSIM on the Motorola Edge 60 takes about sixty seconds. You'll receive a QR code from your eSIM provider by email. Make sure you have a stable Wi-Fi connection before you start.

Open Settings and tap Network & internet.
Tap SIMs, then tap the + icon or Add eSIM.
Select Download a SIM instead? or Scan QR code.
Point your camera at the QR code your eSIM provider sent. The Motorola Edge 60 will read it automatically.
Tap Download and wait while the profile installs—usually ten to thirty seconds.
Once installed, give your eSIM a label like "Travel" or "Work" so you can identify it easily.
Choose which SIM to use for mobile data, calls, and texts in the SIM preferences screen.

Activate and manage your eSIM

After installation, toggle the eSIM on in Settings > Network & internet > SIMs. You can switch your default data line anytime, turn either SIM on or off, and manage separate APN settings if your carrier requires them. The Motorola Edge 60 remembers your preferences, so you won't need to reconfigure every time you travel.

Using a travel eSIM on the Motorola Edge 60

Stay connected abroad without roaming fees

A travel eSIM gives you mobile data in another country without paying your home carrier's roaming charges. Instead of hunting for a local SIM card at the airport, you install an eSIM before you leave. The moment you land, your Motorola Edge 60 connects to a local network and you have data for maps, ride-share apps, and messaging.

Install the eSIM a day or two before your flight so you can troubleshoot any issues at home. Most travel eSIMs activate when they detect the destination network, though some let you choose your start date. Your physical SIM stays in the tray, so you still receive calls and texts on your regular number. You'll find plans for over 190 countries when you browse eSIM plans—pick the data allowance and duration that match your trip.

Set your travel eSIM as the data line

Once you arrive, open Settings > Network & internet > SIMs and set your travel eSIM as the default for Mobile data. Leave your home SIM as the default for calls so people can still reach you. This setup means you use affordable local data rates while keeping your usual phone number active for voice and SMS.

Tips & troubleshooting

Turn on data roaming for your eSIM

The Motorola Edge 60 treats your eSIM like any other line, so you must enable data roaming for it to work abroad. Go to Settings > Network & internet > SIMs, tap your travel eSIM, then tap Roaming and toggle it on. This sounds counterintuitive—"roaming" usually means expensive—but because the eSIM is a local plan, you're roaming on that carrier's partners at the rate you already paid for. Your home SIM can stay off for data to avoid accidental charges.

Fix an eSIM that won't activate

If your QR code won't scan, check that your camera lens is clean and the code is displayed at full brightness. You can also enter the activation details manually: tap Enter activation code instead of scanning, then type the SM-DP+ address and activation code your provider sent. Restart the Motorola Edge 60 after installation if the eSIM doesn't appear in your SIM list. If you're still stuck, eSIM setup help can walk you through carrier-specific steps.

Keep your home SIM for two-factor codes

Many banks and apps send authentication codes by SMS. Leave your home SIM active—even with data turned off—so you receive these messages. The Motorola Edge 60 lets you pick which SIM handles data and which handles calls and texts independently, so you won't miss a login code while using your travel eSIM for internet.

Check eSIM compatibility before you buy

If you're buying a Motorola Edge 60 secondhand or importing one, verify the region variant supports eSIM. The easiest way is to ask the seller to screenshot the SIMs menu showing the "Add eSIM" option. You can also check another device's eSIM compatibility if you're comparing models.

Edge 60 eSIM FAQ

Everything travellers ask about using an eSIM on the Edge 60.

Does the Moto Edge 60 have eSIM?

Yes, the Moto Edge 60 (also called the Motorola Edge 60) has eSIM support in most regions. It uses a nano-SIM plus eSIM configuration, so you can run a physical card and an eSIM profile at the same time. Region-dependent variants mean some markets receive dual nano-SIM trays instead, so confirm your specific unit shows "Add eSIM" in Settings > Network & internet > SIMs before purchasing an eSIM plan.

Is the Motorola Edge eSIM compatible?

Most recent Motorola Edge models support eSIM, including the Edge 60, though implementation varies by model year and region. The Motorola Edge 60 specifically offers nano-SIM plus eSIM in North America, Europe, and many Asia-Pacific countries. Older Edge devices may lack eSIM or offer it only in select markets. Check your phone's SIM settings—if you see an option to download or add an eSIM, your device is compatible.

Does the Moto Edge 60 have Dual SIM?

Yes, the Moto Edge 60 has dual SIM capability using one physical nano-SIM and one eSIM simultaneously. You cannot use two eSIMs at once; the second slot must be a physical card.

Both lines can be active, and you choose which one carries data, calls, and messages in the SIM preferences menu.

Is Samsung Edge compatible with eSIM?

Samsung does not manufacture a phone called the Samsung Edge. You may be thinking of the Galaxy S Edge series (discontinued) or mixing brands—the Motorola Edge 60 is a Motorola device, not Samsung. Many recent Samsung Galaxy flagships do support eSIM, including the S and Z Fold lines, but compatibility depends on the specific model and region. Check the individual device specifications or look it up by name to confirm eSIM support.

Can I use two eSIMs on the Motorola Edge 60?

No, the Motorola Edge 60 does not support dual eSIM operation. It accepts one physical nano-SIM and one eSIM at the same time. If you want to run two numbers or plans simultaneously, one must be a physical card. You can store multiple eSIM profiles on the device and switch between them in Settings, but only one eSIM can be active alongside the physical SIM at any given moment.
