In-Depth Review: Traveling with the eSIM for Asia

When we first considered this eSIM, the appeal was clear: no physical SIM card to buy or lose, just a quick QR code scan and you’re connected. We loved how straightforward the process is—after purchase, you receive an email with a QR code within one working day. Activating it on your device is a matter of installing the profile, turning on mobile data, and enabling data roaming. It’s designed to be simple, even for those not deeply familiar with eSIM technology.
Coverage is impressive. The eSIM supports local networks in Singapore (Singtel), Malaysia (Maxis), Thailand (AIS), Vietnam (Mobifone), Indonesia (Telkomsel), Hong Kong (HKT), Macao (CTM), and Taiwan (CHT). This broad network support means you should experience consistent service across these areas, making it ideal for multi-destination trips.
The duration flexibility—3 to 30 days—is perfect for travelers who either want a quick connectivity boost or need longer-term data in Asia. Keep in mind that activation needs to happen within 30 days of purchase, and once the plan expires, no refunds or changes are allowed. It’s a good idea to activate early and plan your travel schedule accordingly.
Speed-wise, you’ll get 4G internet for most of your trip, and if you opt for the 5G version, expect even faster speeds where available. The inclusion of hotspot sharing makes it a smart choice for group travelers or those relying on a tablet or portable device. Streaming, navigation, and staying connected with loved ones become hassle-free.
What You Can Expect During Your Trip
The process begins with receiving your QR code—a simple email sent within a day of your purchase. Once you scan this QR code, your device will download the eSIM profile, and you’re ready to go. We found that support for local networks is excellent, meaning your data connection should be stable in most cases.
The hotspot feature is especially useful if you’re traveling with friends or family, allowing multiple devices to connect simultaneously. Just remember, data speeds may slow down or stop once your high-speed data allowance runs out, but after that, you’ll still have unlimited 3G service.
Real-World Performance
One review described the service as “useful but inconvenient,” noting some signal issues after initial setup. The user had to play around to fix the connection, which highlights that occasional technical fiddling might be necessary—especially if your device has quirks. On the other hand, another traveler praised the “perfectly functioning” eSIM—it’s clear that results can depend on your device and local network conditions.
The price point of under $4 per person, combined with broad regional coverage, makes this eSIM remarkably good value. Compared to roaming charges, which can be steep, this offers a cost-effective way to stay connected across multiple countries.
Who This Is Best For
This eSIM is suited for independent travelers comfortable with setting up their device, or those who want reliable internet without the hassle of physical SIM cards. It’s particularly good for short trips or multi-country itineraries in Asia, where staying connected is essential for navigation, translation apps, or emergency contact. It’s also a great choice for budget-conscious travelers seeking affordable data plans that don’t skimp on speed or coverage.
