  • When you travel Japan, If your own countries' roaming prices are expensive, you can use this option to get data on your phone while in Japan.
    Regan explained it in English.🙇
    Regan & I made youtube videos together when he was in Japan in 2015.
    He lives in Australia. He is visiting Japan and stays for 10 days.
    He came to Nagoya where he lived in 2015.
    The Mobal website here : Japan SIM Cards, eSIMs & WiFi From Mobal
    www.mobal.com/
    If the phone is locked it can't use the eSIM. Free wifi is available but not everywhere.
    Hope it will help you when you travel Japan!

    We made youtube videos together about 10 years ago. He is visiting Japan and stays for 10 days. He came to Nagoya where he lived before. Hope it helps you travel Japan! Love Tomoko

      Tomoko-san こんにちは、I wouldn't trust ChatGPT too much since it can't count to ten. AI needs to advance more before it can be relied on. I also watched your newest USJ video too. Stay cool.

    US travelers in Japan report that the foreign roaming offered by their US phone carrier generally works well in Japan. I would try my carrier's foreign roaming before buying a SIM or eSIM. The advantage is rather than the SIM's foreign phone number you can call and text with your own number. I like staying on my US plan because when I've used a SIM or eSim I often get strange charges showing up on my credit card bill for weeks.
    AT&T's roaming is $12/day with no cap.
    Verizon' roaming in Japan charges $10/day and data is limited to 0.5GB/day.
    Google Fi's roaming in Japan is reported to work very well and Google charges $10/GB.
