How to verify eSIM support on your device

1. iPhone: Settings → Cellular → look for "Add eSIM" or "Add Cellular Plan". You can also dial *#06# , if you see an "EID" (32-digit number), your phone has eSIM hardware.
2. Android: Settings → Connections (or Network & Internet) → SIM Cards → look for "Download a SIM instead" or "Add eSIM".
3. EID check: most eSIM-capable Android phones show EID in Settings → About Phone → Status.

Tip: Even if your phone supports eSIM hardware, it must be unlocked (not carrier-locked) to use third-party eSIMs like Cellesim. Most phones bought outright are unlocked; phones from carrier instalment plans may require unlocking after the contract is paid off.

Almost every flagship smartphone released since 2019 supports eSIM, making it ideal for international travel. Compatible models include iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer, plus a growing list of mid-range devices. If your phone has Settings → Cellular → "Add eSIM", you're ready to use a Cellesim plan abroad.

Travellers benefit most from eSIM because it eliminates the airport SIM-card queue, removes the need to swap your home SIM out, and lets you keep your usual phone number active for SMS verification. A Cellesim travel eSIM activates the moment you land , no shop visit required.

Tip: if your current phone doesn't support eSIM but you travel often, an unlocked, mid-range eSIM-capable phone (e.g., Pixel 7a, iPhone SE 3, Samsung Galaxy A55) makes an excellent secondary travel device , pair it with a Cellesim plan and you have a full mobile internet kit for any destination.

 Quality is non-negotiable in Japan. To ensure you have a signal everywhere from the neon lights of Tokyo to the temples of Kyoto, our eSIM connects to Japan’s premium networks: NTT Docomo, KDDI (au), or Softbank. Docomo is widely considered the gold standard for coverage, ensuring you stay connected even in rural Hokkaido or near Mount Fuji. 

Yes, for convenience and freedom. Renting a Pocket Wi-Fi means carrying an extra device, charging two batteries, and worrying about losing it (and paying a fine). A Cellesim Japan eSIM is 100% digital. You don't need to pick up or return a device at Narita or Haneda airports. It is cheaper, lighter, and you can’t lose it! 

Yes. Japan’s infrastructure is world-class. You will have a stable 4G/5G signal while traveling on the Shinkansen between cities (e.g., Tokyo to Osaka). Even in the extensive underground subway networks of Tokyo and Osaka, mobile signal is available in stations and tunnels, allowing you to check Google Maps or train schedules via HyperDia or Navitime continuously. 

No. This is a data-only eSIM. It does not come with a local +81 phone number. In Japan, getting a voice SIM as a tourist is very difficult due to regulations. However, most modern restaurants accept online reservations (via TableCheck or Google). For calls, you can use WhatsApp, LINE (very popular in Japan), or Skype using your high-speed data connection. 

Absolutely. Not speaking Japanese can be challenging, making instant translation apps essential. Our eSIM offers low-latency 4G/5G speeds, allowing you to use Google Lens to translate restaurant menus instantly or use voice translation to communicate with locals without any "loading" delays. 

Yes. Tethering (Personal Hotspot) is fully supported. This is perfect if you need to get some work done on your laptop at a cafe in Shibuya or if you want to share data with your family members to save money instead of buying multiple SIM cards. 

Yes. Your Cellesim eSIM for internet and your digital Suica/Pasmo/ICOCA cards (for trains and payments) work independently on the same iPhone or Android device. Using the eSIM for data will not interfere with your ability to tap your phone at ticket gates or convenience stores (Konbini). 

 Most modern phones do, but you must check our specific list here: eSIM Compatible Devices to be 100% sure before purchasing. 

 Absolutely. You must have an active internet connection to use the USJ App inside the park to claim your "Timed Entry e-Ticket" or "Standby Entry Ticket" for the Nintendo area. 

 Yes. During the official climbing season (July to September), major networks provide strong 4G coverage along the trails and even at the summit, allowing you to live-stream the sunrise (Goraiko).
