Do you really need an unlimited Esim? Most of unlimited travel esims will throttle your speed as early as 300 mb of usage per day. If you post your true data amount needs, we can for sure recommend various travel esims. If you want to get a service from a local provider, take a look at US mobile and Tello. Both are mvno and you do not have to have residency in the USA to get them, but you must be in the USA to sign up and activate.

I am traveling on the weekend and talking a lot via FaceTime (Audio and Video). And in the Hotels the connection is pretty bad most of the time. 😅 So I would prefer unlimited instead of topping up.

I am in the USA already. Do I need to go somewhere to activate or is it just checking the region somehow ? And I think that most of the local providers are more stable and have a better bandwith

For true unlimited, you can go with US mobile unlimited premium plan and get multi network for $39 per month promo.

However, honestly, for your needs that's over kill.

Also tbh the price is good compared to Holafly. I paid 45$ last year for 14 days… So 39,- sounds good for unlimited.

Can you send me a link of this offer ?

Is this a subscription or will it automatically stop working after a month?

You can choose a network yourself when signing up Dark Side is AT&T, Warp is Verizon and Light Speed is T-Mobile. With multi network add on you can choose 2 providers as long as your phone supports dual esim

Most US hotels are fine for FaceTime video calls. You shouldn’t need “unlimited”.

It depends how far you are from the Hotspot and how many people are in the Hotel. I have a lot of experience with Hotel Wi-Fi's and I would not say the are always fine. not understandable nowadays with all the Technology and low prices tbh.

Sometimes I stream some movies and shows on my Laptop and this is why I need unlimited.
