“Easy to use, decent speeds (not particularly fast but not frustratingly slow either). But this eSIM uses roaming via Hong Kong, so I wasn't able to use ChatGPT which was a bummer.”
“Nomad eSIM was easy to buy, easy to use (you just activate the plan from app and turn on data roaming) but in the Philippines it was definitely not that fast.
The one I bought from Nomad connected to Globe 4G, but was actually roaming via Hong Kong (provider called 1010 / csl).
I tried to use tethering at the airport on my way back but the network was sooo slow for some reason. Maybe just the airport, not sure.”
Nomad does not offer a truly unlimited high‑speed data plan for the Philippines. Its plans that carry the word “unlimited” actually grant 2 GB per day of high‑speed data and, after that daily limit is reached, the speed is reduced to 1 000 kbps, so no additional high‑speed bandwidth is available. Travelers can instead choose fixed‑data plans; for example, a 50 GB package valid for 30 days costs $45, and a similar 50 GB plan for 45 days costs $51, both of which provide higher data allowances without the daily cap. These fixed‑data options may be more cost‑effective for users who need a large amount of data.
Nomad does not provide an eSIM with a local phone number or SMS capability for the Philippines. Only data‑only eSIM plans are available from this provider. Travelers who need voice or text services can use popular VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection, though the availability of these apps can be limited or blocked in some destinations.
Nomad offers a total of 8 single‑country data plans that specifically cover the Philippines, and 32 multi‑country plans that include Philippine coverage as part of their range. The available plans span a price range from about $4.00 up to $170.00, with data caps that vary between 1 GB and 50 GB and validity periods from 5 days to 365 days. Among their catalog, some plans are fixed‑data packages while a small subset provide daily data caps, giving users options for both short‑term stays and longer visits.
