If you had to pay, which one would you recommend or use again?

The idea was at least one of them would work while I was at the DisneySEA gate.
different priority...


I had a special rooted android phone. There was an esim that gave qci 8 on Verizon (which is postpaid priority) for a usa esim, while qci 8 or 9 on TMobile (lowest priority). You won't know these priority levels unfortunately without a special rooted phones, and most likely all these roaming esims are lowest priority. It's already a struggle getting the exit IP for roaming esims before purchase

did you catch the latency for ubigi? Whether it's truly a usa IP plus usa exit node (aka if you tried pinging or running a speed test against a Japan server, did it travel from Japan - usa exit node - Japan server)
7) Roamless was the final one on Softbank, was fast, and also gave me a Tokyo IP..
hm, curious, I thought roamlesss only exited in Singapore for Apac
