出國上網不卡卡:用 eSIM 行動數據最方便

​出國上網不卡卡:用 eSIM 行動數據最方便出國旅行時,你是否曾經為了省漫遊費想買當地 SIM 卡,卻在機場找不到電信商,或因語言不通而花冤枉錢?或是想用咖啡廳的 Wi-Fi,卻被要求輸入當地電話號碼驗證,還擔心資安風險?

現在,這些問題都有更簡單的解決方案——eSIM!
​
有人可能會好奇,到底 eSIM 要怎麼用?eSIM 跟實體 SIM 卡有什麼不同?eSIM 跟漫遊、Wi-Fi 分享器比起來,哪個更划算?以下我們就來幫大家科普一下 eSIM 是什麼!

eSIM 怎麼用?

一般新手在剛接觸eSIM時,最大的疑惑應該是 eSIM 跟實體 SIM 卡有什麼區別?

其實 eSIM 就像一張虛擬的 SIM 卡,內建於手機中,不需要實體卡片。只要選購適合的 eSIM 方案(如 Saily),按照指示設定手機,就能立即在國外使用行動網路,無需換卡,操作簡單!

不需要特地找出退卡針來抽換 SIM 卡,當然也不會有 SIM 卡遺失或損壞的風險。不需要到實體電信門市操作,就可以自行啟動 eSIM 行動網路方案,或是隨時切換行動網路,對於沒時間或不擅跟店員互動的 I 人用戶來說,簡直夢寐以求!
 
旅行用 eSIM、漫遊、Wi-Fi 分享器哪個好?有新聞分享,出國一趟回來居然收到一筆好幾萬塊的手機帳單,嚇得許多人以為出國上網一定就會很貴!其實現在出國上網已經有很多選擇了,除了傳統的漫遊模式以外,還有 Wi-Fi 分享器跟旅遊當地的 SIM 卡,而最新流行的就是 eSIM 了。
以下是出國上網各種方式比較:
-
eSIM
漫遊
Wi-Fi 分享器
旅遊 SIM 卡
申請/購買方式
隨時用 APP 申請
隨時或預先跟電信公司申請
要跟業者預約
實體據點租借或郵寄到家
預先上網購買或到旅遊當地購買
旅程取消/結束
依購買方案結束
依漫遊方案結束
到實體據點歸還
用退卡針退卡,換回原本卡片
待機時間
隨時使用,依手機電量
隨時使用,依手機電量
連續使用約 4-10小時(須自行充電)
隨時使用,依手機電量
重量

250-400g(含充電線和轉接頭)
-
原門號

機動性
高,多國旅行隨時啟動、續費
高,依電信公司方式啟用、續費
較低,要事先租借,但可自動延期
較低,要事先買好,且多國旅遊或流量用完難以續買
注意事項
較舊型號手機可能不支援 eSIM
超出方案使用的通話、流量計費高昂
有遺失和保管風險、增加包包重量、旅途中可能用到沒電
有遺失和保管風險、機動性最低
​出國上網最推薦的方式:eSIM 旅行

綜合以上資訊,我們認為傳統的漫遊方式雖然最方便,但是價格也是最高的,過往幾乎都是臨時要出國或短期商務行程才會使用,一般旅客會去租借 Wi-Fi 分享器或買旅遊 SIM 卡換裝才比較省錢,不過這兩個選項都需要事先準備,沒辦法說走就走。

近年來才推出的 eSIM,比漫遊更方便,但價格卻便宜很多,有時甚至比 Wi-Fi 分享器或旅遊 SIM 卡划算,對於出國需要便宜又穩定的網路,但又想保持原門號接電話的功能的人來說是首選!

此外,eSIM 不僅免去換卡麻煩,還能在多國之間無縫切換,避免四處尋找公共 Wi-Fi,提升資安防護。因此,出國旅行時,eSIM 絕對是最佳選擇!目前 eSIM 的業者中,Saily 是評價相當不錯的選擇,因為價格優惠,且行動數據方案也比較多,是很多網友的私心推薦哦!
