Why doesn't Digitec say that the Galaxy A54 5G is eSIM-capable? Samsung support also confirms the eSIM capability. However, the reference is missing on Samsung's website.

Helpful answer

I just looked at the Digitec entry and found this information in the specifications:

SIM card type eSIM, Nano-SIM
SIM type Hybrid Dual SIM
SIM Slot Nano-SIM
SIM Slot 2 microSD, Nano-SIM

One might wonder why the eSIM capability is not highlighted in the description, nor is it mentioned in the summary of key features: "256 GB, Awesome Violet, 6.40", Hybrid Dual SIM, 50 Mpx, 5G".

I can only speculate that this capability is not yet important to most buyers, as most have plans from Swiss providers (SwissCom, Sunrise, Salt) with nano-SIMs.

However, I made sure this model had the eSIM capability before I bought it because I wanted to buy a Japanese eSIM for unlimited mobile data when I travelled to Japan. You can buy one for a period of 7 or 10 days. You need to have an internet connection, e.g. WiFi at the hotel, to download and install the eSIM.
