JapanWifiBuddy eSIM

Hi Team, our experience with Platinum WifiBuddy was positive overall. We picked it up at KIX post office, which we found easily from the map and instructions you sent. Setting-up was straightforward and the device itself worked without difficulties. We traveled Kyoto, Tokyo, Takayama, Naoshima and Miyajima. The Buddy was very useful in finding our way around. Google Maps and Hyperdia were our primary use. The telecom connection worked pretty much everywhere it was needed except Miyajima, however that did not cause a problem to us. We had no problems with the usage amount, only using a small amt through connecting to Wifi in our accommodation. Returning the Buddy was easy through using the self-addressed envelope included and posting it in the Post Box at KIX. So, overall a very positive experience and no complaints. Thank you for the service.

Whole process was very easy. Good service

Best decision I made for my first visit to Japan. The networks they used are very reliable. It was a big help!

Highly recommended. Pickup was very easy, arriving at Narita airpoirt the post office was conveniently located near an elevator and showing my passport, it took 2 minutes to get the package. Getting online was as easy as opening the package and turning on the portable router. The wifi password was printed on the side of the router, in easy to read letters and it worked instantly. Wifi signal was present throughout our entire vacation in Tokyo and Kyoto, as well as on the bullet train between Tokyo and Kyoto. Speeds were good and we had no problem watching Netflix at the hotel, using the portable wifi connection. Chromecast even connected to the portable wifi with zero issues.

This was definitely a lifesaver during my time in Japan. Worked well overall, but connection was somewhat spotty in certain places like Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto. I appreciated having the battery and wires included, but since I brought my own it meant additional items for me to carry with me. Perhaps the option of including them could be offered instead. Definintely would recommend this service!
