Which is more convenient for solo travel, an eSIM or a pocket Wi-Fi device?+
An eSIM is usually more convenient for solo travel, since there is no extra hardware to carry and no one else to share with.
Which should a large travelling group choose?+
A pocket Wi-Fi device usually suits a large group staying together better, since it shares to several devices without relying on any single phone's battery.
What kind of device is needed to use an eSIM?+
It must be a device the manufacturer has specifically designed to support eSIM, which differs by brand and model. Always check before buying.
Does a pocket Wi-Fi device always need to be returned after the trip?+
If it is a rented unit, yes, it must be returned at a point and time the rental provider sets. Details vary by provider.
Can an eSIM and a pocket Wi-Fi device be used together?+
Yes, technically. Some travellers use one as a backup for the other, but it means double the cost and double the preparation.
