TL;DRCheapest 10GB: [Nomad/Airalo whichever is cheaper today] • Best urban 5G: T‑Mobile‑based plans (n41/n71) • Hotspot: Allowed on most tourist eSIMs; check plan card.

 

 

Coverage & Local Notes

  • Midtown/Downtown: strong 5G; basements/older buildings may drop to LTE.
  • Subway: concourses/stations mostly covered; tunnels can be spotty → download maps offline.
  • Staten Island ferries & parks: expect LTE; cache maps.

Plans & Prices (Updated: YYYY‑MM‑DD)

Setup Tips (iPhone/Android)

  • Add eSIM → set Data only → toggle Data Roaming → if no data, enter APN from provider email, reboot.

NYC Data Tips

  • Google/Apple Maps offline for Manhattan + outer boroughs.
  • Speed‑test at hotel; keep screenshots if refund needed.
  • Hotspot for laptop? Check plan’s tethering line; avoid heavy uploads at peak.

FAQs

  1. Unlimited really unlimited? Usually soft cap then throttle.
  2. Will it work in subway? Platforms/concourses mostly yes; tunnels are mixed.
  3. Dual‑SIM with Korean number? Keep physical SIM for voice/2FA; set eSIM for data.
