Japan support!For some reason, Thai SIM lock machine becomes the strongest low -low roaming smartphone in Asia for some reason

* Weekly risky is a very geeky corner that delivers information from the intersection of technology and subculture with a "naughty digital" cut mouth.Please be careful if you see it first.

Smartphones with SIM locks cannot be used with other careers and SIMs from other countries.

However, the cheap SIM rock smartphone sold by Thai career TRUE MOVE is a smartphone that can be used throughout Asia, including Japan.The fee is about 1500 yen for 4GB for 8 days.If you go to Thailand, you may want to buy it locally.

Roming prepaid SIM that can be used in Asia is 1500 yen, Japan supports

Over the past few years, the types of prepaid SIMs that can be connected roamed in other countries are increasing.Moreover, the price is cheap.For example, Hong Kong careers are available in SIMs that can be used in China.In China, it is a roaming, so you can use overseas SNS services without VPN.

On the other hand, in Thailand, AIS and True are selling prepaid SIMs for Asia and Europe and the United States.For example, in Asia, you can use 399 baht in each country, including Japan, and 4GB for 8 days for about 1330 yen.

TRUE's TRUEL SIM ASIA is compatible with Japan, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Malaysia, Indonesia, Indonesia, Philippines, Cambodia, Catal, Myanmar, etc.As it can be used in China, it will be a Uhauha SIM that can use Twitter and Facebook in China like Hong Kong's SIM.

In addition, since it can be used in Japan, it can be used as a roaming use in Japan if it is attached to an overseas smartphone.Even if you do not make an MVNO contract in Japan, it may be possible to use this SIM depending on how you use it.Even if you throw it away every 8 days, you can use 4GB every week for about 5300 yen per month.

The data communication settings are "Internet" for APN, and user name and password are "true", respectively.It is automatically set depending on the terminal.Well, this kind of person who uses this kind of SIM will be used to it.

Put Thai SIM and roaming in Hong Kong

So, these Thai SIMs, which can be used in Japan at a low price, are quite convenient depending on how they are used.Not only will you go to some country in Asia, but you can also use Taiwan → Thailand → Singapore → Hong Kong.

Also, when there are friends and acquaintances from overseas to Japan, there are cases where it is more advantageous than the prepaid SIM issued by Japanese careers.

The number of prepaid SIMs is increasing in Japan, but there are cases where Thai SIM is cheaper.

You can use a cheap SIM Rock Maho sold in TRUE

To use these SIMs, you need a SIM -free smartphone.By the way, in Thailand, TRUE mainly sells SIM locks on its brand's smartphone and sells at a low price.

It is natural that it is cheap because you can use only your own SIM.There are always several SIM rock smartphones that can be purchased for less than 10,000 yen, so it is a good idea to buy one for the local use while traveling to Bangkok.

However, what happens if you put TRUE's roaming SIM into this TRUE SIM locking smartphone?Naturally, it can be used as it is in Asian countries.Until now, SIM lock terminals could only be used locally in local SIMs, but the roaming SIM came out, so it can be used as it is in other countries.

TRUE's SIM rock smartphone is being used in Korea

I purchased this TRUE SIM at a SIM stall in Hong Kong.In Japan, some companies sell on Amazon.When I went to Bangkok before, I purchased Android with numeric keypad by saying it was an interesting terminal.

However, after the trip to Bangkok, it was useless and slept at home.However, thanks to TRUE's roaming SIM, it was used in Hong Kong, Korea, and Japan.

Tethering is also available.I stayed in Korea with this SIM

Which carriers can be used in each country are listed on the True web page.For example, docomo line is available in Japan.This will have a sense of security.

China is also available in China.The company's network is somewhat inconvenient to have TD-LTE / TD-SCDMA / GSM and FD-LTE, but the TD-LTE network is more substantial than other carriers.

Connected to 3HK in Hong Kong.Japan and China lead to the first place carrier, so the area is perfect

When I performed a speed test in Japan, it was about 5-10 Mbps for the descent and about 3 to 10 Mbps, so it would be enough considering the price.

Again, this SIM is not a Japanese career SIM, but a roaming SIM for overseas carriers.So this speed is out.

However, since the corresponding frequency on the terminal side is about B1 / 3/7, not all docomo frequencies can be used.If you say, "I have to use all the frequencies of docomo," please buy a smartphone sold in Japan.

The cheap terminal sold in Thailand can be used in Japan as it is, because this is the point.In the first place, no one will use this device on the main terminal.

Speed test with docomo line.Is it enough for about 10Mbps?

There are many TRUE shops in Bangkok, and there are also stores on the mobile floor of MBK, which is a sacred place where smartphone shops gather (credit card payment).

In addition, each smartphone shop in the MBK sells cheaply, saying, "This is a TRUE SIM lock, so it cannot be used elsewhere."But if you use True's roaming SIM, it's a good idea to buy such a device.

TRUE's own brand smartphone, which can be used in Asian countries without unlocking the SIM, will be a convenient one that can be used after buying in Thailand.
