ESIM technology, also known as eSIM and Embedded SIM, may have been the best thing that has happened for travelers, especially since working remotely has been accepted and even encouraged by many businesses and organizations. Due to this shift in lifestyle, travelers are in dire need to be connected anywhere and everywhere to keep up with not only their careers but also their family, friends, and, of course, their favorite Netflix and Hulu shows. This is why devices that are engineered with ESIM technology are favored by many.
ESIM is the embedded SIM or digital version of the traditional data SIM (the small plastic card that is tucked in your iPhone or Android). You have probably pieced it together by now why ESIM is so special. ESIM technology opens the door for many, as you are freed from the inconvenience of having to use a physical SIM card to connect to a cellular signal. Think about it, not having to rely on the signal from a single network is HUGE for someone who is bouncing from spot to spot and probably is not familiar with the strongest networks in the areas in which they end up, especially if it is short-term. Travelers are empowered by ESIM because it enables them to show up at their destination and be at ease knowing that they will get connected to a strong signal quickly.
Thanks to ESIM, devices like the TravlFi Journey1 Hotspot and the newest TravlFi device, the JourneyXTR Router, are able to automatically search and connect to the strongest signal from all major networks because they are not strapped to a single network (via a traditional SIM card). While the JourneyXTR has the ability to take a physical SIM card (the Journey1 does not), the device does not need one to function and or benefit from all major cell networks.

The Swiss Army Knife of Hotspots - Awesome!!!
“I've lived and worked from the road for the last nine years. Travlfi has really saved me by allowing cellular internet service in places I wouldn't have had any other way. It uses the best cell service provider for the area I'm currently in. This is really awesome, as not one provider works everywhere. Now I have them all in one device that fits in my pocket. Super cool.”
