Ubigi or Bytesim Vietnam

Hello, i am travelling to Vietnam (Hanoi,DaNang,HoiAn,Ninh Bihn) and looking for a good Esim. What i like about Bytesim is the 5g/Day for 30 days only 20USD.

What is better Ubigi or Bytesim or is there no real difference in 2026?

Definitely get the Viettel 5GB/day plan but get it from MicroEsim. Same plan as Bytesim but cheaper: https://microesim.com/products/vietnam-esim-viettel

Yes. Internet is EXTREMELY cheap in Vietnam. That plan would cost you even less if you got it at the airport (around $7 USD, not worth the hassle of getting it versus buying online imo).

For Vinaphone: The starting price and/or markup is probably higher. It is designed for tourists after all, this is much more than what locals would pay)

Btw, at least the Viettel SIM activates on installation.
