Smartwatch with eSim - Smartphone with simcard

[Tsidkenu1es]

Can the eSim in my Android smartwatch be activated with the SIM card on my smartphone?

My smartphone is not compatible with eSim, but my Android smartwatch is. Can O2 make this transition? Can I keep the SIM card on my smartphone and use the eSim with the same phone number on the smartwatch?

Looking forward to hearing your response.

Thank you

John

No, you need to sign up to a Smartwatch data plan, and follow the instruction in either the Apple Watch App or the Galaxy Wear app

The smart watch will have a new number,  but the software on the phone and watch do all the work... 

This only applies if you are on Pay Monthly and not PAYG

DO NOT SWITCH YOUR CURRENT SIM TO AN ESIM, IT WILL NOT WORK ON THE PHONE IF YOU DO THIS.

Makes no difference what type of sim is in your phone.
