Global Multi-Country SIM Card | Global Orange Internet + Calling eSIM
I used this eSIM card in Croatia, Montenegro, Slovenia, Hungary, and Austria. The reception was excellent 90% of the time, and the phone function was very convenient. The reception was only slightly poor in mountainous areas or when traveling on trains in remote regions. I initially chose the global SIM card because I was going to Montenegro. If the countries you're visiting are all within the eSIM card's coverage area, you can buy the eSIM card.

The process was simple and quick, but it was disappointing that I couldn't change the date. It's convenient because it can be used in several European countries.

This trip through multiple European countries: the automatic network switching between Germany, France, and Italy was incredibly smooth! No need to reset anything, Google Maps navigation and photo transfers were fast and easy. Great value for money, I'll definitely buy it again next time I travel abroad!
