How to install an eSIM using a QR Code on Huawei Devices

Before attempting to install the eSIM, there are three main things you will need:

  • A strong internet connection - Ideally you will need to either be connected to Wi-fi or have a good 4G signal

  • An eSIM compatible device

  • Unlocked device

     

After installation, ensure that "Data Roaming" is Enabled/ON. Otherwise your data will not work.


1. Go into your Settings.

2. Click on "Mobile Network".
