I have just gotten my spanking new Samsung S21 FE. I was elated to hold the new phone and was about to initiate eSIM on it, but little did I expect that this phone did not have eSIM enabled! This came to me as a shock as the S21 series have eSIM enabled in it. A quick check on Samsung forums worldwide that this feature can be turned on through an update. Can any Samsung staff member please take note to enable the eSIM in the next software update?!

This is really absurd!

I'm travelling.  I can get an eSIM that will give me data in the UK, Canada and the US for MUCH better rates than using my standard roaming (40 dollars vs ~500 dollars...), and it's much more convenient (and probably cheaper) than getting a physical SIM in each of those countries.

I second this request - please enable eSIM on the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE.  Having just found out that these exist I was very excited at the thought of purchasing one for my trip as it would really solve my problem.  Instead, I'm going to have to keep spending a fortune on roaming charges in Canada, then buy a physical SIM once I get to the US.  The last time I did that it took a really long time and wasn't convenient at all.  eSIMs sound like a brilliant solution for travelling, and it's very frustrating to find out I can't use them.  Especially considering that I bought this phone as the nice balance between budget and features... which is exactly why I want an eSIM.  It seems really weird that the phone that exists for that purpose doesn't support a type of SIM that will allow that for tavelling.

I have the same problem.

I bought s21 fe and was really surprised to see that it doesn't have a native support for esim.

Appreciate if you can enable esim support in next SW update.
