MobileSIM eSIM Data Plans for China

MobileSIM does not provide a true unlimited data eSIM for China. All plans that are labeled “Unlimited” actually give a daily data cap of 3 GB, after which the speed is reduced to 1000 kbps. Instead, MobileSIM offers fixed‑data eSIM options, such as a 20 GB plan for 30 days or a 100 GB plan for 180 days, which can be more cost‑effective for heavy data users.

MobileSIM does not provide a China eSIM that includes a phone number or SMS capability. The only options available from this provider for China are data‑only eSIM plans. Travelers who need to call or send text messages can use popular VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection, although some destinations may block or restrict certain apps, so it is advisable to verify the availability of the preferred services in China before making a purchase.

MobileSIM offers 12 single‑country plans that cover China alone, and 22 multi‑country plans that include China alongside other destinations. Of these, 12 are structured as daily data caps—where the allotted data is refreshed each day—while 22 are fixed‑data caps, providing a single, non‑refreshed data allowance for the plan’s validity. Prices for China‑inclusive plans range from $2.34 to $89.00, and data caps span from 200 MB to 100 GB.
