Announcing our Latest Travel eSIM Benchmark
- Reading Time: 2 minutes
SEGRON is preparing to launch a comprehensive Travel eSIM Benchmark, designed to deliver critical insights into the performance of leading eSIM providers worldwide. As the travel eSIM market rapidly expands, understanding how different providers stack up is more important than ever.
Since the early 1990s, physical SIM cards have dominated mobile connectivity, allowing operators to maintain control over customer access. However, the advent of embedded SIM (eSIM) technology in 2015 marked a significant shift. Initially, the adoption of eSIMs was slow, as mobile operators were concerned about losing control and increasing customer churn. But the landscape is changing rapidly due to two key developments:
- The increasing number of smartphones supporting both eSIM and physical SIM slots.
- The rise of new providers offering flexible mobile subscriptions, particularly for travelers.
Travel eSIMs are becoming the go-to solution for travelers seeking cost-effective, data-only packages tailored to specific regions. According to a 2024 Juniper Research study, the travel eSIM market is expected to surge from 40 million subscribers this year to 215 million by 2028, with users currently saving an average of $3 per GB of data compared to traditional roaming costs.
What to Expect from SEGRON’s Travel eSIM Benchmark
In this interconnected world, seamless communication is vital for travelers who rely on mobile connectivity for navigation, communication, and accessing services while abroad. However, the quality of eSIM service can vary widely depending on the provider and region.
SEGRON’s Travel eSIM Benchmark aims to address these challenges by offering a comprehensive analysis of service quality across different countries. Using our state-of-the-art Global Service Enabler (GSE) platform, we conduct fully automated tests on real, unrooted smartphones to compare travel eSIM profiles with traditional SIM profiles from the top five travel eSIM providers.
Our benchmark will evaluate key performance metrics, including:
- Network Access: How easily can travelers connect in different regions?
- Data Speeds: Are the data speeds reliable for various online activities?
- Latency: How responsive is the connection, particularly for real-time applications?
- Service Reliability: How often do users experience dropped connections or interruptions?
By highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of each provider in specific regions, our benchmark will empower travelers to make informed choices and help eSIM providers identify areas for improvement, ultimately leading to better user experiences and more reliable global connectivity.
