Very likely, you have a phone that was manufactured for use in China and Hong Kong......where eSIM is not permitted.


But, we need more information to confirm since the model number ending in LL/A does not provide the details that we need.


Tap Settings > General > About > Model Number

Then tap on Model Number and another 5 character number like Axxxx will appear


Post back with that 5 character Axxxx number
