I’ve used Billion Connect for multiple eSims abroad now, and I’ve found them great every time. Their customer service responds pretty quickly to any issues, and the sims are cheap and work well. Be aware the sims are mostly based in Hong Kong so if you’re geographically far from there the latency might be a little high, and you may need a VPN for things like TikTok to work, but I’ve had very few issues.
I used Nesa for almost 2 weeks. Nesa was working with great speed. I had a problem with internet and they immediately fixed the problem. They have a fastest customer service i have ever had. Eventhoug the problem turns out to be a local telecom provider. I encourage everybody to choose Nesa greate service.
I bought eSim 1 GB of internet for 1 day to use in China. I followed all the installation instructions, but the Internet still did not work. I was unable to use the service and wasted my time and money. I do not recommend this service.
Dude, if you're headed to China or Hong Kong, you gotta check out Textr eSIM's data plan. I used it on a work trip recently and it was freakin' awesome. The network was super fast and reliable, even in the middle of nowhere. Setting it up was a breeze, and the pricing was totally reasonable. Plus, their customer support was super helpful whenever I had a question or needed assistance. Overall, if you want to stay connected and get stuff done on your trip, Textr eSIM's China and Hong Kong Data Plan is the way to go. Highly recommend.
Bypassed the Great Firewall. I used MySim eSIM in both Shanghai and Beijing as well as a high speed train between the two destinations. Here's my experience on my iPhone X:
It's a pretty straightforward installation once I scanned the QR code and turned on Data Roaming (which you need to do).
I was able to use Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, Google, Whatsapp, YouTube, and Gmail with no issues or a VPN.
I had great reception pretty much everywhere as well as the subway and I did use the phone extensively even making a view Facetime calls as well using Google Maps a lot to find my way.
Having a SIM card that bypassed the Chinese national firewall was essential and made the trip way safer.
It was so practical to travel with MySIM in China! I had access to all the social networks that I need (Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram...). I also have to say the connection was perfect and in 4G! Really good experience overall, convenient and easy to use.
Bought this eSIM for a round trip in China, after download on arrival I just have to select China Mobile network and I have a full access to internet without restriction (google, whatsapp, gmail, facebook) and very good speed in 4G

China Mobile: The largest mobile operator in China, offering extensive nationwide coverage and a wide range of services, including voice, data, and multimedia.
China Unicom: A major state-owned operator providing mobile and fixed-line services, known for its strong presence in northern China and compatibility with international devices.
China Telecom: Another leading state-owned operator offering mobile, fixed-line, and broadband services, with robust coverage in southern China.
In addition to these major operators, China has Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) that lease access from the primary carriers to offer mobile services. Examples include China Broadcasting Network (CBN), a state-owned entity providing mobile, broadband, and broadcasting services. However, most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of the major Mobile Network Operators rather than MVNOs.
