Worked great throughout China — I had stable 5G in major cities like Shanghai and Beijing. No need for a physical SIM, which made things much easier!

Thank you for the 5-star review!

Reliably Good

I'd never been to China, so wasn't sure what I needed, turns out, if you want to use the many apps for payment, I needed a number to receive texts not just data. That said, no fault of this sim, I'd just ordered the wrong one, as far as data connectivity goes, this was excellent, connected first time, every time and worked seemlesly with a VPN.

Id definitely use this again (but a different package, if available)

Thank you so much for your kind and detailed review!
We’re really happy to hear that the eSIM worked reliably for you and that connectivity was strong — even with a VPN. That’s great feedback and we truly appreciate it.

You're absolutely right — many apps in China do require a local phone number to receive SMS for verification or payment. At the moment, our eSIMs are data-only and do not include a phone number for calling or texting.

That said, we’re actively exploring options, and if we launch a plan that includes SMS capability or phone numbers, we’ll be sure to let you know!

Thanks again for your support — and we’d love to assist you with a better-suited plan next time 😊
