Truely review

Truely is built around flexibility. You can pick unlimited data or build a pay-per-GB bundle, and you can pause a plan and save unused days for later, which helps if a trip is cut short or a day is spent offline. It lists coverage in 190+ countries with 4G/5G speeds and supports hotspot and tethering. In Japan it names SoftBank and KDDI as its networks. Truely also promotes a simple refund process when a trip is rescheduled or something does not work. Read the unlimited terms: high speed lasts up to 5 GB per day, then speed drops to 512kbps for the rest of the day, with no cut-off. The Japan page we checked did not show a price, so we could not confirm what a Japan plan costs in USD. Multi-SIM support and shared data days are listed as upgrades still to come.
