[Experience] Is an eSIM convenient for travel in Southeast Asia? A summary of setup methods and real reviews

Hello!
Travel-loving bloggerrisu🐿️ here.

This time, I actually used a
Southeast Asia compatible eSIMon my trip to Bali, so I will review it based on my
real experience😆


"Can you really use an eSIM properly?"
"Which is better, a physical SIM or an eSIM?"

If you're wondering about that, please use this as a reference✨

The eSIM I used this time

This is what I used this time👇

[Almond eSIM]
Southeast Asia compatible (Southeast Asia eSIM)

I bought it onAmazontwo days before departure!


Honestly, I was worried, "Will it make it in time if I order at the last minute?"
but...

👉 It worked without any issues from the day I arrived◎

Flow from purchasing to using an eSIM

The process is quite simple👇

① Purchase on Amazon
② Issue the eSIM
③ Turn on the line locally

An instruction manual was also sent by mail, but
honestly, you can set it up without any problems even without it.

If you are used to operating a smartphone,
it was at a level that could be completed in 5-10 minutes!✨

My impressions of actually using it in Bali

To conclude...

I had a layover in Singapore this time, but
thanks to it being compatible with Southeast Asia⬇️

👉 It's god-tier that I could keep using it during the layover✨

Not having to switch SIMs every time was quite
easy~😉

Differences from a physical SIM

I have been aphysical SIM useruntil now, but...🧐


Benefits of eSIM⬇️

👉 Honestly, I thought that an eSIM might be enough from now on!

Trouble occurred!

Actually, there was a small problem this time...

I bought 3 of them, including ones for my parents,
but my father's iPhone wouldn't connect💦

When I inquired about the cause via LINE...

👉 It turned out the SIM lock hadn't been removed🫨

(This was completely my father's mistake😂)

But here is where it gets impressive...

👉 They provided a refund for the one that couldn't be used✨


The support was fast and polite,
and I felt quite reassured◎

Points to note (Check these at least!)

Before using an eSIM, you must check these⬇️

✔ Is the SIM lock removed?
✔ Is it an eSIM-compatible device?
✔ Environment for scanning the QR code

Be especially careful about the SIM lock issue⚠️

Summary | eSIM is highly recommended

The conclusion after trying it out this time⬇️

For those who think "local SIMs are a hassle..."
I highly recommend it✨

There were no extra charges, so it was worry-free♪♪

From now on, I think I willmainly use eSIM✈️✨
