nextSIM eSIM Data Plans for China

nextSIM does not provide a plan that offers unlimited high‑speed data in China. The plans that include “Unlimited” in their name actually allow 1 GB or 2 GB of data, after which speed is reduced to 512 kbps or 2000 kbps.

Travelers who need more data can choose from fixed‑data plans such as the eSIM China 20GB 30Days Economy for $28.41 or the more generous eSIM GLOBAL 50GB 30Days Premium for $1, 251.54. These options give a set amount of high‑speed data without the post‑limit throttling found in the “Unlimited” plans.

nextSIM does not provide a China eSIM that includes a phone number or SMS capability. The provider offers only data‑only plans for China, so there is no option to receive voice calls or text messages through the local network.

Travelers who need to stay in touch can use popular VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram or iMessage over the data connection. These apps allow voice calls and messaging without requiring a traditional phone number or SMS service.

nextSIM offers 58 single‑country plans that cover China alone and 35 multi‑country plans that include China alongside other destinations. The packages range in price from $3.54 to $1, 264.89, with data caps between 1 GB and 50 GB and validity periods spanning 1 to 365 days. Plans are divided into fixed data‑cap options—75 in total, where the allotted data remains constant for the entire validity—and daily data‑cap options—18 in total, where the data allowance is reset each day.
