hello, thanks for the video. Im travelling from new zealand. would i download the vpn here at home ..or once im in china
Is it better ot use esim for tourist in China, or China simcard?
I use LETSVPN for 4 years. its very stable. You should install it before go to China.
So you are saying that this has a built in VPN and it worked?
Lived in China for over tens years. You CAN use vpn with Chinese SIM. Easiest way is to download a bunch of VPN apps before going to China. Otherwise, you can still download inside China by using a non-Chinese apple account. (There are ways to download even without but requires a few more steps )
This is nonsense? Are you kidding me I have a hide expert and its still a nightmare
Is the vpn free?
Can I use SimpleLink VPN?
I'd better use roaming SIM tbh
best avoid China if possible
Which Chinese Sim & VPN is best for WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram ?
I am afraid i got blocked out my social media accounts & when i go back to my country i can’t access back
Can roaming only from my local phone network work & overcome the firewall
