If I buy iPhone XS Max from Hongkong, will it work in India? And does Hongkong model have actual dual sim or it is with esim?

It should work in India if its unlocked.

Yes the Xs Max from Hong Kong does have dual physical sim slots and not an eSIM like the regular Xs.

Note that the warranty is not international, so if you have any issues with it, it will need to be taken back to Hong Kong for service and repair. And no, Apple does not take shipments from outside the country for service.

Thank you. And can you suggest the phone with esim will be better or with physical dual sim will be better?

Depends on where you plan to use it.

For the eSIM to work it needs to be supported by the carriers in the country you wish to use it in. eSIM support is still a bit limited, and so probably physical sims may be a better option for more universal support.

Unknown. Not sure Apple ships to shopandship addresses but you can try.

Only mainland China has dual nano Sim. Hong Kong and Macau also have eSim. If you want to risk your waranty (only valid in China) you can risk buying a dual nano Sim from China. I think for CDMA there are hardware differences, but for GSM they ahould be ok worldwide.
