Ubigi VS Airalo
Airalo is a reseller of different eSIM providers. So, the same eSIM profile cannot be reused in all the destinations unlike Ubigi (once Ubigi eSIM is installed, it works in 200+ destinations). Moreover, Ubigi offers data plans for eSIM compatible Windows 10 and Windows 11 laptops with a list of laptop models with Ubigi pre-installed. Airalo doesn’t provide eSIM data plans for laptops.
Finally, you can always access your account not only from the app but from our web portal too. And Ubigi has better customer reviews than Airalo on the App stores and Trustpilot.
