Customer review

4.93/5

Whanaupani Henry Joseph Macown

We rented a Pocket WiFi from Japan Wireless for 15 days and had a great experience. It was very easy to set up, and the connection speeds were excellent even with four phones connected at the same time. The included power bank was incredibly helpful for keeping the device charged while out and about. Overall, it offered great value for money, and the postal return process was simple and convenient. Highly recommended for anyone travelling in Japan.
