Galaxy fold 5G esim - Samsung Galaxy Fold Questions & Answers

Hello
So I have 2 numbers one on physical sim other on esim
I saw locally a galaxy fold 5G for good price
Question is does fold 5G (unlocked) support esim or is that only for 4G variant

It doesn't seem to in the UK at least, mine is an unlocked device direct from Samsung and there is no option for an esim, not eve a greyed out option.

From what I know the 5g is 1 sim I got mine from ee but has no ee bloat on it at all and has bsu so get updates direct from samsung the 4g version is dual sim 1 and esim not sure tho as 5g one only available in uk

note 10 plus 5g dual sim

Hi all
I live in the uk and would like to buy a note 10 plus 5g 512Gb dual sim, unfortunately it's not available in the uk only the single sim available. Does anyone know if it's available in that format where I could get one that would work in the uk
Thanks in advance
I think only the 4g version has a dual sim option globally. Correct me if I am wrong though...
5G version of note 10 plus doesn't come with dual sim
Thanks for the replys I will order the 4G version I have found a 512 GB version on egloba,l as the uk only does the dual sim version in 256GB
Wrong information
There is a Note 10 Plus 5G in dualism.
It's the Chinese Version model # : SM-9760
The Problem Samsung is making a big secret of this in Europe. The problem is how to get it and maybe the Rom /frequency band problems for Europe.
I hope next high and Samsung phones like s11 note 11 will have at least dual sim if not this is my last Samsung device

No 5G option

Hey everyone,
So I've got myself the S20 plus G9860 which I believe is the Hong Kong variant, 5G dual SIM etc.
I've noticed I don't have the option for 5G under connection settings.
I'm using EE and have a 5G plan in the UK
EE have dismissed me by saying it's the phone and it being a international model.
Any ideas?
I also don't have the option for e-sim which again is very weird!
Please help

Questions about G9880 and T-Mobile

I have a bootloader unlocked, rooted Galaxy S20 Ultra SM-G9880 (Hong Kong version) that I am using on T-Mobile. However, I had some doubts about how it interacts with the various bands.
The phone does not support some of T-Mobile's LTE bands, and it does not seem to support any of their current 5G bands. Is there any way to change this with CSC changes or any other trickery?
Would AT&T be better for any of this?
When I use the Samsung band selector app, I see that NR B41 is supported. This is the Sprint spectrum that T-Mobile is repurposing, correct? Does that mean additional 5G and LTE coverage once the rollout is complete?
Another user was having problems enabling carrier aggregation. Is there a way of doing this?

You can't change to a US CSC on your device. Some users are reporting 5G works only on SIM2. Carrier Aggregation isn't compatible in the US with the SM-G9880. I have the Hong Kong variant on T-mobile and 4G LTE works fine.

Would you happen to know if our imei works with 5g on t mobile? I just switched last month from att. On att, you would have to call and give an att imei in order for 5g to work and I'm wondering if t mobile is the same way or if it works out of the box with our imei.
Also, I have an SD card and seems like I cannot have a Sim on slot 2 and an SD at the same time, do you happen to know if an esim will get 5g?

That's a question for T-mobile. It's not a question of your IMEI, it's whether or not your device's available 4G and 5G bands are compatible with T-mobile. I don't know what model you have but if it's a US model eSim isn't available on S20 devices. Only Exynos devices have eSim capabilities.

I have the same model that's been on topic... The SM-G9880...
SM-G9880 isn't eSim enabled, only Exynos variants offer this. 5G may work, take it to your local T-mobile store and see if they can set it up. Often times information coming from a CSR over the phone isn't reliable. If it worked with AT&T on SIM 1 T-mobile it MAY work as well however many users have stated it only works on SIM 2. Even though T-mobile's 5G network has a larger coverage area they can't match the speed of AT&T's mmWave network.

I know that some people were trying to enable eSIM on rooted Snapdragon S20 Ultra devices. Did anything ever happen with that?

If you root the device I suppose it's possible to override an eSim block on the SM-G9880 but I'm not aware of anyone achieving it. The only Snapdragon variant which offers eSim at this time is the Galaxy Fold. I don't understand what the value of eSim is on a Dual SIM device. Even if you travel to a different country it's a simple choice, keep the SD Card in or use both SIM's and rely on internal memory for storage.
Did anyone try using BRI CSC to see if CA works in the USA?
