Microsoft Surface와 eSIM
LTE 또는 5G가 내장된 Surface 모델은 eSIM을 지원하며, Windows에서 실행되기 때문에 메뉴 위치가 휴대폰과는 다릅니다. Surface Duo 두 모델은 Android 기기로, eSIM과 물리적 SIM을 모두 지원합니다.


| 방식 | eSIM | 출시 연도 | 비고 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Surface Pro 9 (5G) | 필요 | 2022 | 5G / LTE 모델 전용 |
| Surface Pro 7+ (LTE) | 필요 | 2021 | 5G / LTE 모델 전용 |
| Surface Pro X | 필요 | 2019 | — |
| Surface Go 3 (LTE) | 필요 | 2021 | 5G / LTE 모델 전용 |
| Surface Duo 2 | 필요 | 2021 | — |
| Surface Duo | 필요 | 2020 | — |
휴대폰에서 확인하는 방법
- Windows에서는 설정 → 네트워크 및 인터넷 → 셀룰러를 여세요
- 셀룰러 항목 자체가 아예 없다면 해당 기기는 모뎀이 없는 Wi-Fi 전용 모델입니다
- Surface Duo에서는 Android 방식을 따르세요: 설정 → 네트워크 및 인터넷 → SIM
알아두면 좋은 점
- Wi-Fi 모델과 LTE/5G Surface는 외관이 동일하고 모델 코드로만 구분되므로, 요금제 구매 전 기기 사양을 확인하세요.
- 일부 eSIM 제공업체는 휴대폰 앱만 제공하므로, Windows에서는 QR 코드로 설치하거나 활성화 정보를 직접 입력해야 할 수 있습니다.
eSIM on a Windows Surface
Microsoft lists the Surface devices that can use eSIM as the Surface Pro X, Surface Pro (5th Gen) with LTE Advanced, Surface Pro 7+ with LTE Advanced, Surface Pro 8 with LTE Advanced, Surface Pro 9 with 5G, Surface Pro 10 with 5G for Business, Surface Pro (11th Edition) with 5G, Surface Pro 5G for Business (12th Edition), Surface Laptop 5G for Business and Surface Go 3 with LTE Advanced. If you are not sure whether yours is an LTE or 5G model, open the Surface app → Device information and read the Surface model value.
Installing a travel eSIM on Windows
- 1Check for a Cellular pageGo to Start → Settings → Network & internet. A Cellular page means the device has a modem; no Cellular page means a Wi-Fi model that cannot use eSIM.
- 2Open eSIM profilesGo to Settings → Network & internet → Cellular → eSIM profiles, and under Add an eSIM profile from your mobile operator select Add profile.
- 3개통 코드를 입력하세요Choose Let me enter an activation code I have from my mobile operator → Next, then scan the QR code with the camera or type the code. If a confirmation code box appears and the shop gave you one, enter it, then select Download.
- 4Make the eSIM the data lineOn the Cellular page, under Use this SIM for cellular data, select eSIM. Then in eSIM profiles choose the profile, select Use and confirm the charges prompt.
Windows settings to check before you travel
Microsoft's Cellular settings page describes three options that matter when travelling. All sit under Settings → Network & internet → Cellular.
- Data roaming options: Microsoft says this decides whether cellular data stays on outside your operator's network. If the travel plan roams, allow roaming on that eSIM, and pick Don't roam on your home SIM to avoid roaming charges.
- Metered connection: Microsoft says cellular connections are set as metered by default. Leave it that way so some apps use less data.
- Let Windows keep me connected: when on, Windows joins cellular data by itself whenever there is no Wi-Fi or Ethernet. To control usage yourself, turn it off and select Connect when needed.
Surface Duo and common problems
Surface Duo and Duo 2 are Android devices: use Settings → Network & internet → SIMs, and *#06# shows the EID. We could not find a Microsoft eSIM help page for the Duo to verify today, so this is the general Android route only.
| 문제 | 일반적인 원인 | 할 일 |
|---|---|---|
| No Cellular page | Wi-Fi-only model | Use your phone's hotspot instead |
| The shop's app is phone-only | The app supports iOS and Android only | Use the QR code or activation code from the email |
| Downloaded but no data | SIM1 is still the data line | Select eSIM under Use this SIM for cellular data |
자주 묻는 질문
Is my Surface an LTE model?+
Open the Surface app → Device information and read Surface model, as Microsoft suggests, or check whether Settings has a Cellular page.
Can I use the same eSIM QR code on my phone and my Surface?+
No. Most eSIM profiles install once on one device. For data on both, buy two plans or share your phone's hotspot.
Can I dial *#06# on Windows to see the EID?+
No, that code is for phones. On a Surface, look in Settings → Network & internet → Cellular.
Do I need the Mobile Plans app?+
Not for an eSIM you bought from a shop. Microsoft uses Mobile Plans for signing up with participating operators; a QR code you already have goes in through Add profile under eSIM profiles.
