Will my phone work?
An eSIM needs two things: a device that supports it, and one that is not locked to a carrier.
Check it in ten seconds
Open your phone's dialler and type *#06#
If a line labelled EID appears, your device supports eSIM. That answer is final.

Only IMEI and a serial number? That is not a no.
Many phones, Samsung especially, leave the EID off this screen even when they support eSIM. Check your settings instead:

Three things that catch people out
Carrier-locked phones
A phone locked to an operator will refuse a foreign eSIM even when the hardware supports it. Ask your operator to unlock it.
The variant matters, not the name
The same model can ship with eSIM in one country and without it in another. This is why the EID check is the real answer.
Models sold in mainland China have no eSIM
iPhones sold in mainland China take two physical SIM cards instead of an eSIM, and some Android models were made without eSIM for particular countries.
