US Mobile Global

Seems interesting in that it's a data-only roaming eSIM, but for multiple countries and billed in one go (other than Europe, a big bucket of data that expires after a year):

US & Canada (and Australia/New Zealand/UK/Hong Kong): 35GB for 365 days for $60
Asia Pacific: 17GB for 365 days for $60
Global: 13GB for 365 days for $60

Europe: 10GB for 30 days for $20

Even though they're designed for international travel, part of me is tempted to pick up one for my iPad mini as a data line (seems to roam on AT&T and T-Mobile in the US). I'll be curious how the latency is, but the idea of a pool of data instead of X GB each month would fit better with a tablet that's used in bursts here and there (and cheaper than some of the dedicated unlimited tablet lines).

Yes by USA (expensive) standards

$2/GB with a year rollover is great, service time being free...

Or call it $5 a month with 3GB included

Or $3/mo plus $1.50/GB


Then the other ex-colonies will come in real handy for some to boot!

Within the US, TMO or VZW or gFi-like switching to the stronger ?

5G while on either or both?

Another characteristic that matches the 3HK offerings:

• For the 3HK offerings, the allocations are made up of General data and Social data.
• People reported the same, I presume from the Global By US Mobile app.

One discrepancy among the Asia Pacific offerings:

• https://www.three.com.hk/prepaid/DIY/en/offer/travel includes Bangladesh and India.
• https://mobimatter.com/travel-esim/3-apac-17-gb-esim includes Bangladesh and India under Details, but not under Works In.
• https://www.usmobile.com/global does not include Bangladesh and India.

There is something similar among the Global offerings: Argentina, Bahrain, Chile, Colombia, etc.
