way cheaper than roaming.. fast 4G LTE in Malawi Innovation District
scanned the qr code at home the night before our flight and it took like 30 seconds. Speeds on Airtel were fast enough for facetime and video calls from Malawi Innovation District with zero lag. so much better than paying $12/day for my home carrier roaming!
★★★★★
Malawi Innovation District, Malawi Trade Center 여행 내내 핫스팟이랑 속도 최고
MW Skybridge Terminal 비행기 타기 전에 결제했는데 이메일로 QR이 바로 와서 편했어요. MW Skybridge Terminal 도착하자마자 Airtel 4G LTE로 자동 연결돼서 Malawi Innovation District 시내까지 구글맵 바로 켰어요. 설치도 쉽고 속도도 빨라서 강추합니다.

Stabiles Airtel Netz während unserer Reise
Meine normale Nummer blieb für WhatsApp und Bank-SMS aktiv während die eSIM die Daten übernahm. Alles hat auf Anhieb geklappt, jederzeit wieder.
