Are you ready to explore the stunning landscapes of Norway? Don’t let a subpar mobile data plan ruin your adventure. Get the best eSIM Norway from Holiday eSIM and enjoy fast and reliable internet connection without paying extra for international roaming fees.

In this guide, we’ll help you find the best eSIM option, based on your budget, preferences, and needs. Forget about the expensive and slow international data plans from your current provider; Holiday eSIM has the perfect solution for you.

Why you should avoid your current provider’s international plan 

You might think that using your current mobile phone provider’s “international plan” is the easiest way to stay connected abroad, but you’ll soon regret it when you see the hidden costs and limitations.

For example, plans like AT&T International Day Pass and Verizon TravelPass can charge you up to $12 per day, while T-Mobile’s free international roaming only gives you 2G data speeds, which are barely enough to load a webpage or send a message.

Instead, with Holiday eSIM you can get the same or even better quality of service for only $3-$4 per day. The difference is huge, making it a much smarter choice for travellers.

How to choose the best eSIMs for Norway 

While some local Norwegian mobile carriers offer eSIM data plans, they are usually aimed at long-term customers, requiring complicated contracts and sometimes facing language barriers.

The activation process can be very tedious, not ideal for short-term visitors. Holiday eSIM recommends this option mainly for those planning to stay in Norway for a long time.

What to look for when buying a Norway eSIM? 

The best option is to buy a prepaid data plan that is specially designed for short-term visitors. These are easy to use, convenient, and tailored to the needs of travelers. Here are the main factors to consider when choosing a plan:

DATA LIMIT 

Most plans offer a fixed amount of mobile data, ranging from 10GB to 50GB. Pick a plan that matches your data needs during your trip. Some plans may offer unlimited data but at a much lower speed after using up your data allowance. Calculate your data usage in advance to choose the most appropriate data plan. Think about your internet needs, such as posting photos on social media or booking activities online during your vacation.

DEVICE COMPATIBILITY 

Since eSIM technology is fairly new, not all phone models support it. Check the compatibility of your device with eSIM technology on the eSIM provider’s website to avoid any problems during your trip.

PLAN DURATION 

eSIM data plans can last for as short as 7 days or as long as 120 days. Choose a plan that fits the length of your stay in Norway to avoid wasting money or running out of data.

MOBILE HOTSPOT TETHERING 

Note that some eSIM plans may not let you use your phone as a mobile hotspot. If you depend on tethering, be sure to check the plan’s details before making a decision.

VOICE CALLS AND SMS TEXTING 

While some eSIM plans are data-only, others include voice calls and SMS texting. Keep in mind that iMessage works between Apple iPhones, but for messaging between iPhones and Android phones, you can use WhatsApp over data.
