It’s finally live on Samsung’s latest flagship phone a few months after it arrived for the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra.<\/p>\n Samsung has begun rolling out eSIM support to the Galaxy S21 Ultra running the Android 12-based One UI 4.0<\/a> in the U.S. The latest change appears to have quietly arrived on the flagship device, and it’s presumably available on the other Galaxy S21 devices as well.<\/p>\n Android Central’s Alex Dobie can confirm that the eSIM option is now live on his Galaxy S21 Ultra<\/a> (U.S. version), as shown in the screenshot on the right. The feature doesn’t come as a huge surprise, though, seeing as the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra picked up eSIM support<\/a> from T-Mobile earlier this year alongside a security update.<\/p>\n The release coincides with today’s rollout of the first One UI 4.0 beta<\/a> to the Galaxy S21 series in the U.S. and Europe. The update introduces a host of improvements such as redesigned home screen widgets, enhanced dark mode, new charging effects, improved multitasking features, and privacy updates, among others.<\/p>\n There were rumors that circulated at least since earlier this year<\/a> pointing to an eventual release of eSIM functionality to the Galaxy S21 devices, which didn’t have that option at launch. Those rumors mentioned T-Mobile as one of the first carriers in the U.S. to support the feature on one of the best Samsung phones<\/a> via a software update. That said, T-Mobile’s support page<\/a> doesn’t mention the Galaxy S21 phones yet as among the devices with eSIM support.<\/p>\n It’s worth noting that eSIM is mentioned in Samsung’s FAQ page<\/a> for the Galaxy S21 series. However, that feature has been unavailable on the U.S. version, that is, until now.<\/p>\n The eSIM option is already available on most Apple devices, starting with the 2018 iPhone models, so its release to Samsung’s flagship handsets just makes sense, albeit a tad late. That said, you need to scan a QR code provided by your carrier to make use of eSIM. This means the functionality works only for a cellular plan, with no prepaid option.<\/p>\n If you’re using the new One UI 4 beta, let us know if you’ve noticed this option on your Galaxy S21 and which model you own.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n From $900 at Samsung<\/a> The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra is one of the best Android phones you can buy right now, with four impressive cameras, a stunning display, and S Pen support. It’s likely to pick up Android 12 in the coming months, and it now has more capabilities with the addition of eSIM support.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n It’s finally live on Samsung’s latest flagship phone a few months after it arrived for the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra.<\/p>\n What you need to know<\/p>\n Samsung has pushed a new update to the Galaxy S21 Ultra with eSIM support.
