Is the OnePlus 13 dual SIM?

OnePlus's support article says that if Manage eSIM Card doesn't appear there, the phone doesn't support eSIM (OnePlus: How to add an eSIM card). Menu names can differ a little with your OxygenOS version.
2. Check that your phone isn't carrier-locked
If you bought the phone on a contract, your carrier may have locked it to its network. Ask your carrier, or read how to unlock your phone.
