We just returned from our trip to Japan and were looking into eSims to find the best option for us. Coincidentally, the company launched their eSim just weeks before our departure, which simplified our decision. Overall, it functioned flawlessly!
We spent two full weeks there. While I'm not a heavy data user, I do rely on social media, the internet, and Google Maps. I opted for the 10GB plan, as my husband primarily used Google Maps on his phone, and I ended up using about 8GB by the time we got back. If you plan to use Google Maps frequently and are staying for two weeks, I recommend the 20GB or Unlimited plan. There were a few moments when both my husband and I lost service completely—once in Osaka, a few times at Tokyo Disney Sea, and occasionally while passing through train tunnels. It seemed that most of these outages occurred in crowded areas. I'm not sure if being in such places impacts the service, so it's something to consider. However, the service returned quickly once we were out of the crowd or the tunnel. If we travel to Japan again, I would definitely choose this eSim once more.
