The Best eSIMs for Visiting Japan

eSIMs are perfect for traveling. There's no need to worry about sim trays anymore, simply download a virtual SIM straight onto your phone. With the ability to install multiple eSIMs, and get up and running in less than 15 minutes, eSIMs make travel really easy. In this video, we cover the main providers in Japan, including pricing, data speeds and the convenience of installation.

iPhone Pro Tip: If you get a QR code and only have one screen (your iphone), you can screenshot the code, then open the photo, long press the QR and it will open the link for you

can someone tell me step by step quickly on how to install Mobal E sim data? Once i've installed it, do I turn my roaming off or what do I do? Sorry it is my first time!

[garyng]

what option does one have that has local # ? as many local apps/services need that

[poephila]

Thank you for the video! So since you can call with the Mobal esim, does it give you a phone number as well?

[silviapietropoli]

Have you had any feedback about Holafly? Is it performing well?

[hungsiu]

Speed also depends on what area you are in (and how close you are to the cell towers).…. Also, you don’t need two screens to set up an eSIM

[realivanjx]

any options for 1 day trip since im only sightseeing during my flight transfer

[contactluke]

Should you buy your eSIM before you arrive in Japan?

[alimitlive]

Does Esim gives you a Japanse phone number?

Great thanks, I like the Airalo for speed, but could do with a phone number but Mobalo is not as quick, did some one say I can have esims from both, and swithch?
