I went with a 4G lite sim, 30GB for 30 days. I found it easy to buy online from home, and it worked really well. However because all of my accommodation had wifi, I would go with a lower amount of GB in the future. Mine was a data only sim, and so I couldn't make calls or text, but just used a wifi app, so all worked well. My husband got a Japanese sim, with a number, which was useful in a couple of places when they needed a phone number. We travelled quite widely, Tokyo and headed south, and had no problems. One thing I missed was the ability to see how much data I had left, but once I enabled my phone to keep track (in my settings) that worked well.
We thoroughly enjoyed our ride & the Wifi connection board shinkansen. It was smooth & effortless.
Nothing special to report other than this service provided the 5g service I needed almost everywhere I went in Japan. In the areas where the service was a little slower it still worked better than the free service my home provider gives with my normal plan. I’ll use it again when I visit in the future.
Worked perfectly on landing in Japan
Aside from the noticeable slowdown when there's only 3GB left and the disappearance of GPS when underground, service was excellent all around and I would use this eSIM again :)
