See what travelers are saying about their Asia eSIM experience. Real feedback from real users to help you pick the best plan for your trip.
“I bought it for my short trip in Kazakhstan and got great experience due to routing in United Kingdom (most of eSIM providers use Singapore routing that is really slow in Kazakhstan). On LTE I've got 50-100 Mbps download and 50 Mbps upload speed.
So I definitely recommend buying this one for Kazakhstan to get stable connection without issues.”
“Hello, I purchased an unlimited data eSIM from esim.dog for my 5-day Umrah trip to Mecca, and it was a terrible experience from start to finish. Despite the signal being strong, the internet speed never exceeded 200kbps, making it impossible to browse.
I am aware that Saudi Arabia has certain internet restrictions, and I even used a paid VPN service to try and fix the issue. After switching between multiple countries on my VPN, I was barely able to use WhatsApp for texting. Web pages wouldn’t load even after refreshing 2-3 times, and images were non-existent. Without a VPN, I couldn't even access local Saudi flight or train booking sites. This was easily the worst eSIM service I have ever used. Think twice before buying.”
“Bought a 14-day eSim from Yoho. After 5 days, it expired. I uploaded a screenshot as proof. Also, they advertise 24/7 support but that's also not true. Their chat support says "Live Chat" only for show since no one is responding there. There are plenty of cheap eSim available out there. Choose a different company.”
“Used Micro-Esim for the first time, went great.
Bought online, got sent a QR code by email, downloaded it to my android and installed it, had it off as second SIM until landed in China and then turned it on, worked great for the time I was in China.
Could not get Instagram or TikTok to work but that will be due to country rules and not the SIM.”
“Able to activate this eSIM from Indonesia however unable to connect to any provider in Singapore. Refund process was quite easy. I gave two stars because of how easy the refund process was otherwise one star.”
“Pre-installed Nomad eSIM on a 10GB/30day plan. Activation at the Guangzhou airport after a 15 hr flight was bit challenging. I used the combination of Airport Wi-Fi & Firsty Tier 1 Free Basic to bootstrap start Nomad. Provisioning and activatin took less than 5 minutes max. Nomad has implied VPN features, so to really use the cellular connection service provided by partner China Telecom, under Settings I disabled wi-fi in my iPhone 16 and primary SIM. I was able to access 90% of my Apps (normally blocked: YT, FB, WhatsApp, Outlook emails, Gmails, etc.). Some locations even with signals at 4-bars, both eSIMs appeared not working, that is the network connection issues and not the eSIM's fault. Overall very satisfied with Nomad (paid) DL upto 90Mbs and Firsty (free) 230Kbs as backup.”
“Delays, Misleading Product Info, and a Frustrating Refund Process
I bought two 33GB eSIMs for the Philippines and they were completely unusable — SMART required local‑resident documents, which Airhub never mentioned. Support ignored my ticket for 17 days, then claimed they had replied (they hadn’t) and even leaked another customer’s email in a screenshot.
After weeks of excuses and delays, they only offered a 50% refund for a service that never worked at all.
Unreliable service, misleading info, and very poor support.”
“Honestly its the first time i tried esim from Strong esim and i only chose as it was the Cheapest esim deals i could find. But it worked very well and no issues whatsoever”
“Scammers - purchased esim, received no confirmation of order and no login. Tried to access support and no response. No idea why esimdb are allowing this site to advertise”
“reasonable prices, good connection. never lost connection before expiry date & time.”
“Turkey doesnt have 5G except some spesific places. So the 5G thing is a lie. I got a maximum of 20 mbps so i guess the 5 mbps thing is a lie as well. The esim took a bit to generate. There is a lot of latency. It gives you a london ip adress from a swedish company when its supposed to give you a polish one. Overall experience gets a 5/10”
“Seconding what another user wrote: speed is really slow, about 0.3 Mbps in UAE..”
“10GB for 7 day ESim. Seemed to work fine at first in Haifa area, albeit with signal strength coming and going. When I moved to Tel Aviv area, the ESim stopped connecting to the network entirely. Support (via e-mail) were unable to resolve the issue, so they offered to refund me but I have yet to receive it”
“Terrible company. Scammers! I highly recommend not using them! I got an eSIM for India. I set everything up according to the instructions. But the SIM won't connect to any carrier! Support said they'd help me within 24 hours, but three days later, they haven't responded. My vacation was already over, so I asked for a refund. After much persuasion, they said it would be returned in 2-3 days. It's been 9 days now, and I still haven't received a refund! Support hasn't helped at all. They simply stole my money.”
“Its not working and they are just reading my messages with no response? Is this a scam??????? Very frustrating”
“Based on my 5-day experience I strongly recommend NOT to buy from this company: Despite full LTE network coverage, the connection was either nonexistent or poor. It was impossible to use Google Maps, Google translator, emails, or even the browser... even WhatsApp and Telegram worked very poorly: no videos, no pictures most of the time…. waiting for ages… probably the speed was 64kbps…
I wrote to them and it is true that they replied quite fast offering to help… but my holidays were almost over and the frustration too big.
On the same device I have already used 4 other eSims and never experienced such a miserable service. So I assume it was not a problem of my device and its settings.”
“Everything went very comfortable. eSIM was added to phone and the internet started working immediately. A huge plus is that all international services work without a VPN.”
“very bad experience I used and paid attention to monitor many times but very disappointed because I bought a 10gb package but each sim I bought used about 8.65gb then reported it was used up I used the phone data usage measurement app I went on the web to check but the app said it needed a GES code but when I bought there was no GES code to check and I contacted the chat in the app but the response was another package not mine”
“Good instructions and super easy setup - super cheap, thought in the beginning it was sketchy but it’s not.
Could install the card before traveling which meant it didn’t require network for setup in the target country.
Nice that the website shows the data usage.”
