I recently arrived in Japan and have been having a very difficult time trying to find a suitable mobile service.
For short stays, SIM and phone rental services are a good option (1,500 JPY/day). I'm here for a few months, so I'm looking for something that's more affordable.
What are my options?
Basic requirements:
- >=1 GB Data access per month
- No need for Japan resident card
- No long term agreement (max 3 months)
Nice to have:
- Japan phone number
- Local voice & SMS capabilities
- Unlimited data access
- Fast (25Mbps+) connection speed
- NanoSIM form factor
I have multiple unlocked devices that I can use, with support for Japanese mobile bands.
