8 piani per Sudafrica, da 3 a 20 GB. La validità va da 1 giorno a 30 giorni. Nessuno di questi va in 5G: in Sudafrica le reti che rivendiamo sono solo LTE. Preferiamo dirtelo qui, invece di fartelo scoprire all'arrivo.
5 piani possono essere ricaricati senza installare una seconda eSIM. I piani si appoggiano a Vodacom.
Numeri contati sul catalogo vero, non messi lì dal marketing: sono gli stessi piani che vedi elencati qui sopra.
In Sudafrica non arriva nessun pacchetto regionale: qui l'unica opzione è il piano del singolo paese, che comunque di solito costa meno.
Un'eSIM di viaggio per Sudafrica è una SIM digitale che il telefono si scarica: niente tessera di plastica, niente banco da cercare in aeroporto. Compri online, tocchi il link che ti arriva per email (nella stessa email c'è anche il QR) e sul telefono compare una seconda linea, accanto alla tua SIM di sempre. Resta ferma finché non arrivi in Sudafrica, poi si aggancia da sola a Vodacom su LTE. Il tuo numero continua a funzionare per chiamate e SMS: l'eSIM porta solo i giga.
Mappe, messaggi e app per i taxi consumano poco: circa 300–500 MB al giorno. Se ci aggiungi foto, social e qualche video sei vicino a 1 GB al giorno. Per una settimana un piano da 5 GB sta comodo; per due settimane, o se condividi l'hotspot e guardi video, meglio 10 GB o più, oppure un piano ricaricabile che puoi rimpolpare in viaggio. I piani per Sudafrica partono da 9,60 € in 4 tagli, e su ognuno trovi il prezzo al GB: il confronto lo fai in due secondi.
No. Un'eSIM di viaggio per Sudafrica è un piano dati locale, non roaming internazionale: paghi in anticipo il prezzo che vedi, senza nessun conteggio al megabyte da parte del tuo operatore. Imposta l'eSIM come linea dati e spegni il roaming dati sulla SIM di casa: al ritorno non trovi sorprese in bolletta. E fino a quando non la installi ti rimborsiamo tutto, quindi comprarla in anticipo non è un rischio.

Guida: internet in Sudafrica
Two separate things shape connectivity in South Africa. The first is RICA, the registration law: buying a local SIM is reported to require your original passport plus proof of where you are staying. The second is the power grid: scheduled outages have, in recent years, been able to take mobile towers down with them. A travel eSIM installed before you fly deals with the first entirely and lets you plan sensibly around the second.
