Ubigi VS BetterRoaming

With Ubigi, you have more eSIM data plans with Ubigi: one-off top ups — ideal for travellers — and recurring subscriptions for regular users, while BetterRoaming’s plans are one-off only. Furthermore you can get data plans for eSIM compatible Windows 10 and Windows 11 laptops (and soon Windows 11) with a list of laptop models with Ubigi pre-installed. BetterRoaming eSIM does not work with Windows 10 (hence laptops), but it does on Apple Watch unlike Ubigi.

Finally, Ubigi has better customer reviews than BetterRoaming on the App stores and Trustpilot.

Ubigi VS Gigsky

Both Ubigi and Gigsky cover 200+ destinations (with new openings every month), but Ubigi has more country-dedicated plans (close to local rates) on top of regional plans. Ubigi offers both one-off eSIM data plans — ideal for travelers — and recurring subscriptions for regular users, while Gigsky’s plans are one-off only.

Finally, Ubigi has better customer reviews than Gigsky on Trustpilot.

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.

Most of the time it worked pretty well
Most of the time it worked pretty well; I had unlimited data for both Norway and Sweden, for one month each. However, I didn't have internet for two days in Norway and one day in Sweden, even though the signal was very strong.

Would recommend
Relatively easy to install when following the instructions. I used an unlimited plan just to be sure to have enough for my work trip. The connection was generally very good but I will deduct one star because sometimes it stopped working.

On arrival to Japan
On arrival to Japan, I received a notification to connect my sim, I made sure the sim was downloaded and showing on my phone before I left the Uk as previous experience with esims can be stressful if you arrive at your destination only to find out you cannot work out how to activate your travel sim. It is amazing to have the convenience of access to data and what’s app calls and google maps. So thank you Ubigi sim
