What the stars say about these 8 apps
All 8 apps sit in a narrow band, from 4.49 to 4.81. Nomad follows Holafly closely, and Saily comes third. The gap between first and last place is small. Read the Holafly review for more on the top-rated app.
Airalo has the largest number of ratings, at 102,693. The median count is 12,806. One app has only 904, so some averages rest on far fewer reviews.
Gaps a star rating cannot fill
A rating does not show the price per gigabyte. It also says nothing about refund terms or top-up options. Nomad has the highest overall score in our methodology, despite a slightly lower rating than Holafly. Maya Mobile has the lowest rating here, at 4.49. Even so, it leads on our unlimited index.
How Yesim and the price leader compare
Yesim is shown first as Editor's Choice, and the rest follow the rating column. Its rating is 4.61, the middle of this group. Plans here compare at the same 30-day length. Yesim works on a pay-as-you-go basis. Unused Yesim plans carry a 30-day refund window. We earn a commission from Yesim. The full Yesim review covers the details.
On price, GigSky has the lowest price index, at 0.88. The cheapest eSIM page sets out the full price comparison. For more on each app, visit the eSIM apps guide.
