SingaporeChina mainland eSIM: common questions
Which networks does a China mainland eSIM use?
3 local networks: China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom. Your phone picks the one where you are; if the signal is weak, choose another by hand in the phone's settings.
Is there 5G on a China mainland eSIM?
Yes, on China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom. Where there's no 5G, or your phone doesn't support it, the eSIM uses 4G. Each plan's speed is on its card.
Does a China mainland eSIM come with a phone number?
No. The eSIM is data only: no phone number, no voice and no SMS. Your own number keeps working on your usual SIM, and calls over WhatsApp, FaceTime and the like run over the data.
Can I use a China mainland eSIM as a hotspot?
On many networks it works, but no plan promises it. Some networks block sharing the connection or slow it down.
When does a China mainland eSIM's validity start?
Not when you buy it: when you first connect at your destination. You can install the eSIM before you leave, within the window its page shows.
Can I add data to a China mainland eSIM later?
On some plans. If yours can be, the eSIM's page has a “Top up” button and the data loads onto the same eSIM. A plan that can't be topped up says so on its card.
Which country does a China mainland eSIM's traffic exit from?
Depending on the plan: Hong Kong and Singapore. Websites you visit will see you in one of them.
How much is a China mainland eSIM?
The 15 local plans for China mainland cost $1.49 to $58.99. The lowest price per GB is $0.93, on the 50 GB plan.
