It seems the roaming provider has changed from Singtel to KPN. As a result, data now routes through the Netherlands, thus higher latency than before (200+ms). It connects to Smart network. There were several occasions when the signal dropped to "E" (Edge), and data could not be used. This might be due to local coverage issues. The latency is still manageable, but the occasional loss of connectivity is a bit inconvenient. I wouldn't recommend it.
It works flawlessly! The speed was above 80mbps (download) most of the time which I did not expect for a prepaid eSIM, way better than my expectation. Roaming via Singapore with latency around 100ms.
It connected to Smart network and the coverage was good in Phnom Penh. No issues whatsoever.
Highly recommend this.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Airalo offer unlimited data eSIM for Cambodia?
Airalo does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for Cambodia. The plans listed under “Connect Cambodia ‑ Unlimited” actually offer a daily cap of 3 GB and then reduce the speed to 1000 kbps once that limit is reached. Travelers who need more data can choose one of Airalo’s fixed‑data plans instead, such as a 50 GB plan valid for 30 days that costs $49.00 USD, or a higher‑capacity option like 100 GB valid for 180 days for $185.00 USD. These fixed plans give a large high‑speed data allowance without the throttling that comes with the so‑called unlimited option.
Does Airalo offer Cambodia eSIM with phone number and SMS?
Airalo does not provide a Cambodian eSIM that includes a phone number or SMS capability. The available plans are data‑only and do not support inbound or outbound voice calls or text messages.
Travelers who need voice communication or messaging can use data‑connected VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram or iMessage. These services work over a data connection and do not require a local phone number or traditional SMS support.
How many data plans does Airalo offer for Cambodia?
Airalo provides 18 single-country plans for Cambodia and 20 multi-country plans. Prices start around USD 4 and can go up to about USD 185. The data caps range from 1 GB to 100 GB, and validity periods run from 3 to 365 days. Plans are offered in two basic formats: fixed data‑cap plans where a set amount of data is available for the whole validity period, and daily‑data‑cap plans that allocate a specific data amount each day. This mix gives buyers flexibility depending on their usage needs.
