If you need to hotspot a laptop in Tokyo, read the FUP, not the word “unlimited”.

Copied 29 Aug 2026 from official pages:

• Holafly Japan 7-day $27.50. Hotspot 1GB/day.
• Airalo unlimited 7-day $27. 3GB high-speed / 24h then 1 Mbps. Personal hotspot allowed on that plan.
• Ubigi 10GB/7 days $14 on Docomo. No 7-day unlimited SKU on the official page that day (404).

eSIM is not Suica. Welcome Suica Mobile is iOS / JR East. Maps still need a data line.
