Mobile WiFi Routers Wifi in Japan

Japan is a very photogenic country, you don’t want to miss out on sharing your new memories on social media. On top of being a very beautiful country, it’s also a big one. A very big one!

With that said, most of the Japanese population have poor English skills, making it hard to sometimes order food or communicate – especially if you leave Tokyo. Having internet with you to all your devices opens up for Google Translate, timetables for trains, maps and much more while traveling around in Japan!

The purchased data runs on 4G high speed but will jump down to 128 kb/s after all your data has been used. You may still continue to use the internet after you have used all your data, but as mentioned with limited speed until the next day.

Free WIFI in Japan

Free wifi in Japan is not as convenient and good as you may think for a country as techincal and modern as Japan. It’s usually very slow, not very broad and requires you to register before using it.

Save time & money

Renting a pocket WiFi router from NINJA WiFi in Japan presents several advantages over purchasing a SIM card. One of the primary benefits is the ease of setup; there’s no need to replace your home SIM card or tweak any phone settings. You just turn on the pocket WiFi device and connect your gadgets to it. Furthermore, a significant advantage of a pocket WiFi is its ability to allow multiple devices to connect simultaneously. Whether you have a smartphone, tablet, or laptop — or if you’re traveling with family or friends, everyone can be online without needing individual SIM cards.

Another advantage is consistent connectivity. While some SIM cards might pose limitations based on phone compatibility, with a pocket WiFi, any device with WiFi capabilities can connect. Moreover, travelers can bypass the often time-consuming process of activating a SIM or entering into a contract. Companies like NINJA WiFi provide a generous data allowance, which can be favorable compared to some tourist SIM cards that might offer limited data.

From a cost perspective, if you’re traveling in a group, sharing a pocket WiFi can be more economical than everyone purchasing separate SIM cards. And for added convenience, companies like NINJA WiFi have counters at major airports for easy pickup and return of devices. As a bonus, you get your router at the aiport and can start using your internet as soon as you leave the airport.
