Pros and cons
T-Mobile US
Pros
- Operates its own 5G mobile network across America
- Offers 5G plans alongside phones and home internet service
- Provides satellite coverage to stay connected beyond regular signal
Cons
- Serves one domestic market instead of multiple travel destinations
- Catalog centers on full phone plans rather than short visitor options
Tele2 Sweden
Pros
- A single subscription sold as a carrier plan, with unlimited data in Sweden and roaming across 140 to 170 countries.
- EU and EEA roaming is included in all subscriptions, so travel inside Europe is already covered.
- Support runs on email, chat and phone, including phone and a help centre.
Cons
- The fair use policy is written for temporary stays, so roaming abroad that outpaces home use over a period of months can trigger a review.
- Outside the EU and EEA, data is capped by zone, with the smallest allowance in Zone B, which includes Mexico, and the remaining listed countries.
- Entry price sits at SEK 199, above travel eSIMs such as eSIMGo.is at $0.99, so a single trip can cost more.
Who each suits

Who should look elsewhere
- Travellers buying for a single trip who want the lowest entry price: eSIMGo.is starts at $0.99.
