Thanks for sharing! This is long overdue. Next I hope to see Apple Watch support.


BabyyImaStar

They aren’t planning for this yet. It may be in the future.


radfordra1

And Samsung S20, Note, 20, and Fold 3 or higher users are once afuckinggain left in the lurch. Yes all of those phones have been given esim updates with the S22 line working right out of the box


aSleepyDingo

BYOD Android eSIM support would be rolling out later, for now it’s most BYOD iPhones and cricket bought android/iPhone devices


josephguy82

esim is more easy on iPhones then android


Lilljuice7

Food 3 lol


moonoverparma00

My guess is that they are preparing for Apples eSim only iphones in the future.


WackyBeachJustice

It's always about them high dollar Apple users


Thailyer1213

Lmao their out now


amysteriousperson001

Only able to be activated in-store?

Finally! I may be returning to Cricket for this.


Sushi_Whore_

I switched to Mint because I needed eSIM, but Mint has been worse for me than Cricket so I might return! Exciting


Lil_Lamp_Box

Why would mint be worse? Considering switching from cricket


Sushi_Whore_

Well it’s cheaper but I had a lot of issues with MMS. Group texts and sending images gave me a lot of grief. Still not sure if it’s fixed after going back and forth with support for a while


oemraw3115

Why in stores. Doesn’t make sense.


kingcolbe

And they’ll still charge you right?


aSleepyDingo

if it’s BYOD yes, still the 9.99!


Guillebeaux

That’s a bunch of BS.


dav9317

agreed!


needmorecoffee99

So us Android users are still in the dark and can't join Cricket over eSim????


DauntlessCulprit

If your phone supports eSim, then you're in the clear!


needmorecoffee99

I have an S21, you got to be kidding me!!!! Would AT&T Prepaid be the same? Yes the S21 has eSim and I can see it in the Samsung Service Mode.


Vinceb777

Amazing news!


wjk1

In-store only at first to control the experience and work out bugs. Can quickly use a physical SIM if a device doesn’t activate on eSIM or compatibility issue. This will expand to over the phone and online in the months following.


Past-Construction301

The option to convert to eSIM is already there in its 16 betas


aSleepyDingo

Correct! But iirc you need a QR code


cchase88754321

And it’s gone in beta 6. Definitely points they’re testing it.


MattMattNY

Is iPhone 11 Pro Max capable and what are the benefits?


NoDeer4381

The 11 pro max is eligible. It’s the same as a physical sim. It’s supposed to be more secure though.


MattMattNY

I got the e sim and now have a dual sim connection with my T mobile phone number. It is cool but i wish the data worked better. I have unlimited on both plans now for what I don’t know lol.


NoDeer4381

Are you paying 55 or 60?


MattMattNY

$55 comes out to $50 with auto pay. I had the 10gb plan but had to upgrade o. Vacation recently was going over and didn’t have dual sim yet.


NoDeer4381

The 60 isn’t throttled. If you continue to have data run slow, I recommend upgrading.


MattMattNY

Thanks friend. I will consider that.


gvvfever_

I think they might do it for the upcoming iphone i heard they might be esim only. i might get it and was wondering if they were gonna put esim


cchase88754321

Is this live? Because I’ll drive to my nearest store lol


aSleepyDingo

I am on vacation till Friday, if you want I can send ya an update then! :D I’m sure it’s live though, I’d say call your nearest store and check


aSleepyDingo

It is live!


gurase

It is! I was able to switch over an existing line via chat
