Frequently Asked Questions
Why doesn't eSIM work or won't add?
Most often the reason is Chinese firmware or CN version of the device. Also check that your operator supports eSIM and the QR code hasn't already been activated on another device.
How to delete eSIM?
Settings → SIM cards and mobile networks → select the desired eSIM profile → Delete eSIM. Once the profile is deleted, it cannot be recovered — only reissued by your operator.
Can I transfer eSIM to another phone?
No. eSIM is tied to the device. To transfer it, you need to delete the profile and issue a new one with your operator.
Where to buy eSIM for travel
If you're traveling abroad, it's most convenient to buy a travel eSIM in advance. On the website e7m.ru you can choose eSIM for most countries, activate it online and download it directly to your Xiaomi 12 without visiting a store.
