Yes it does.
It depends what country you're in. The US doesn't and Canada does (not sure about elsewhere).
I am in Canada, so that does make sense. Interesting that the US doesn't though. I for sure wouldn't have got this if I was forced to use an esim.
You could be right. I looked at several of them on eBay and could only find phones with the e-sim, couldn't find any with sim card tray.
Kmacmartin pointed out that the SIM tray is available only in certain countries. So maybe it's worth checking out Canadian listings? I wouldn't want to be forced to use esim either.
