Instead, you can use an aloSIM eSIM in a reliable but affordable smartphone like the iPhone XR, Google Pixel 4, or the Samsung Galaxy S21. Here\u2019s why this list of the cheapest eSIM phones might work for you and how you can get one for a great price.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>iPhone XR<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Approximate Cost:<\/em> Buyers can likely find a secondhand iPhone XR for around $250-$350 CAD. Note that the price might be higher depending on the condition of the phone and its storage capacity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Why It\u2019s Worth It: <\/em>Known for its performance capabilities, long-lasting battery life, and regular software updates from Apple, the iPhone XR is a solid way to be able to take advantage of an eSIM without spending a fortune on a fancy new phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Google Pixel 4<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Approximate Cost:<\/em><strong> <\/strong>Secondhand Google Pixel 4s sell between $200-$300 CAD. Like its competitors, its price can vary based on condition and storage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Why It\u2019s Worth It: <\/em>Content creators and phone photographers love the Google Pixel 4 for its camera quality. It\u2019s also recognized for the Android experience and regular updates directly from Google.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Samsung Galaxy S21<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Approximate Cost: <\/em>A used Samsung Galaxy S21 can typically be purchased between $400-$500 CAD. It is slightly more expensive than the other two but still much less than a new model of any of these options.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Why It\u2019s Worth It: <\/em>A high quality display and fast performance are both the highest rated quality of a Galaxy S21. It\u2019s worth considering for anyone who is looking for more power while still saving money on their purchase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where to snag a budget-friendly eSIM compatible phone<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Online Sites:<\/em><strong> <\/strong>Facebook Marketplace, Kijiji, and eBay are all popular places to find second hand phones to purchase. Shop safe by first checking the seller\u2019s ratings and reviews, and be sure to ask for a guarantee that the phone is unlocked and in decent working condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Refurbished:<\/em><strong> <\/strong>Retailers like Amazon, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestbuy.ca\/en-ca\/product\/refurbished-excellent-samsung-galaxy-s21-5g-128gb-phantom-grey-unlocked\/15453494\">Best Buy<\/a>, service providers, and sometimes even the manufacturers themselves, might offer certified refurbished models of the cheapest eSIM phones. These can be found in good condition and include warranties.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Local Sellers and Online Groups:<\/em><strong><em> <\/em><\/strong>Local groups on Facebook or other such community platforms are worth checking for second hand phones. Just be sure to have the opportunity to inspect the phone in person before you buy it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why consider the cheapest eSIM phones?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your current phone doesn\u2019t support an eSIM (a good number of cheap or older models don\u2019t), snagging a second hand iPhone XR, Google Pixel 4, or Samsung Galaxy S21 is a definite ]game-changer for your next trip. An aloSIM eSIM will allow you to seamlessly switch between carriers and manage multiple numbers, all while avoiding the hassle of physical SIM cards (a must for international travel).&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you aren\u2019t yet on the eSIM train but starting to wonder about their convenience for travel or their flexibility for managing multiple phone numbers, you might be ready to leave the world of physical SIM cards behind.\u00a0 The good news is that there is absolutely no need to shell out big bucks for the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":65190,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[75],"class_list":["post-65189","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-esim-faq-fr","tag-technology-fr"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Cheapest eSIM phones and how to snag one | aloSIM<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Looking for the cheapest eSIM phones?
