Does iPad 9.7 support eSIM?
No, the iPad 9.7 does not support eSIM.
eSIM is a new technology that allows you to use mobile plans without inserting a physical SIM Card. The iPad 9.7 was designed to work with traditional SIM cards, not eSIM technology. If you want to use eSIM, you have two options:
- Use a special SIM card adapter: You can purchase a special adapter that allows your device to handle eSIM profiles. This adapter can be used to enable eSIM functionality on devices that do not have native support for it.
- Upgrade to a newer iPad model: If you want built-in eSIM support, you will need to consider upgrading to a newer iPad that offers this feature. Starting from the 2018 iPad Pro models. This includes both the 11-inch and 12.9-inch versions. Check out eSIM-compatible iPads here.
Note: Remember that eSIM availability may vary depending on your location and the devices offered by your mobile service provider.
