should i risk trying an esim for my taiwan trip?
I was watching YouTube last night when an ad for esims popped up—something I’d never even heard of before. It got me thinking, since I’m heading to Taiwan soon, maybe this could save me from hunting for wifi in every coffee shop. But here’s the thing: I’ve always stuck with AT&T, and honestly, I barely know what to do with my phone when I’m outside the US. I’ve only traveled a couple of times, and both times I just survived on hotel wifi and crossed my fingers I wouldn’t get lost.
Now, this esim thing sounds easy, but I’m worried it’s too good to be true. Do I just download something and suddenly my phone works in Taiwan? Or am I missing some hidden catch? And to make things trickier, my phone isn’t even paid off yet—so I’m guessing there are more hoops to jump through. I can’t be the only one who finds all these phone options confusing. Has anyone else tried esims while traveling, especially if your phone isn’t fully paid off? Did it actually work, or did you end up with a useless phone and a headache? I’d love to hear if there’s a better alternative, or if I should just stick to the old wifi-hunting routine. It feels like every time I think I’ve figured out tech, there’s another twist!
