Our take

It depends on whether you mainly need mobile data abroad or mostly want to find Wi-Fi with data as a backup. Compare the eSIM plans for your destination and remember that public Wi-Fi is best used with care.

FAQ

Is public Wi-Fi safe to use?

Public Wi-Fi can be risky because others on the network may be able to see unencrypted traffic. Stick to HTTPS sites and consider a VPN on open networks.

Does Instabridge work offline?

The app has offered downloadable Wi-Fi maps for offline use. Features change, so check the app's current description.

Can I use either eSIM on any phone?

Only on phones that support eSIM and are carrier-unlocked. Check your device before buying.
