Truely eSIM Review: Keeping Connected While Traveling

Truely eSIM Review: Keeping Connected While Traveling

Using an eSIM while traveling is a great way to stay connected with friends and family, as well as the people you meet along the way on your journey. A Truely eSIM takes away the hassle of buying or swapping SIM cards in each place that you visit. I love it for how easy it is to get online to stay in touch with people, look up important travel info plus having quick access to my documents, and learn more about the places I’m exploring so that I get the most out of my trip.

If you’re considering one of these, Truely eSIM is awesome because you can buy it before you set off on your adventure and only have to activate it when you’re ready to use it, making your travel planning even smoother. Whether you’re heading off on a short vacation or a longer trip with multiple stops, it’s a real game changer. Prepping for a trip can be stressful, so anything that helps simplify things is a win in my book. Not everyone knows about eSIMs, so let’s delve into what they actually are and why the Truely eSIM is worth checking out.

WHAT IS A TRUELY ESIM?

The Truely eSIM is great for anyone, whether you’re traveling for business, leisure, or on a backpacking trip. It makes a huge difference for using your phone whilst in a different country, especially if you’re tired of the hassle of trying to connect to a network when you land somewhere new. One of the coolest things about it is how many places it works in. I was amazed to discover that there are over 200 destinations globally! And all you need is a smartphone to get it up and running.

The Truely eSIM was put together by people who really know their stuff in travel, tech, and marketing, so you can trust it to work well. The data packages are affordable, and getting set up is super easy. I found the whole process of purchasing, downloading, and activating it straightforward, so much so that I didn’t even need to use their 24-hour support. This meant that the over hanging stress of trying to find the perfect phone travel package, hope it didn’t charge me roaming fees, and praying it would connect when I landed was gone, giving me more time to actually enjoy my journey.

MY EXPERIENCE WITH TRUELY ESIM

I’m constantly hopping between countries, so finding ways to cut costs, stay connected, and keep my number intact where key factors for me. The Truely eSIM makes traveling way easier. Plus, working on the go is a big deal, so I love that it lets me use my phone as a hotspot for my laptop. Let’s face it, relying on WIFI connections everywhere you go isn’t always a safe bet.

Switching from a physical SIM to my Truely eSIM was so smooth that I barely noticed it happening. I just popped into my mobile settings, clicked on Truely eSIM, and that was it done and ready to go. Another fantastic thing is that there is an app that comes with it. This allows you to easily check your credit and top up whenever you need, which is something not all eSIMs offer.

My favorite part about using a Truely eSIM is that I can keep my Australian phone number active with it’s physical sim card. This means I can still receive verification texts from my bank or airlines but easily switch it on and off when necessary. Without this ability to switch on and off with the eSIM it would make life very difficult as a digital nomad.

HOW A TRUELY ESIM WORKS

Wondering how it all works? It is effortless. All I needed to do to grab by data was head over to their website (or app), and explore through the range of plans on offer for each region and country the Truely eSIM is available in. Whether you need a small amount 1GB or up to 20GB they have it on offer, and you can then pick whether you want your place to last from 7 to 60 days. Once you’ve purchased the perfect package, the next phase is downloading and activating it, which is a piece of cake.

After you get your email confirmation, you can either scan the QR code or enter the Truely eSIM info manually. I went with scanning the QR code. As soon as I did it and clicked the link, the rest of the setup instructions popped up on my phone screen. I activated the eSIM, hit ‘Turn On This Line’ and ‘Data Roaming,’ and then set it as my main network in Mobile Data to put it into play. Remember though, your plan kicks in the moment you activate the Truely eSIM, so make sure if you purchase it prior to your trip, you don’t activate it until you are actually about to travel.
