Hi
I will be stopping over at Japan for 5 days in Osaka in march. A lot of people say pocket wifis are a must to get around Japan however it seems very expensive!
This is going to be a budget japan trip where I would probably get by with just google maps to get around the place. Dont need any of youtube or facebook (or do i?). The cheapest I found is
econnect SIM card: 2980 Yen for 7 days for 100Mb/day
econnect pocket wifi: 2575 Yen for 5 days for 300kbps/day
All of the other pocket wifis (ie global advance) are around 3000-5000 yen! is econnect sim the best way to go?
Doesn't really seem like you'll be able to get much cheaper than that. I hired a LTE pocket wifi for 15 days for 7450 yen through Japan Wireless
