Is my Fairphone 5 5G carrier unlocked?
✅ If you bought your 5 5G directly from Fairphone, it's already unlocked and ready to use with any eSIM.
If you got your 5 5G from a mobile carrier as part of a contract or payment plan, it might be carrier-locked. Don't worry - this is less common nowadays! However, please check with your carrier to confirm your device can connect with other networks.
A carrier-unlocked device simply means you can:
• Use eSIMs from any network provider • Switch carriers whenever you want • Use local eSIMs when traveling abroad
Not sure about your device? Simply contact your network provider to check - they can unlock it for you if needed.
🏢 Using a work phone? Your company may disable the eSIM feature, even if the device is technically compatible. If you’re not sure, ask your employer whether eSIM is allowed on your device.
Traveling abroad? Check available eSIMs and save on roaming
