Good coverage in the city, a bit patchy in remote areas. Coverage was strong even outside the city.

How do I activate my Malaysia eSIM?
Scan the QR code in your phone settings (Cellular/Mobile → Add eSIM) or tap Install in the GotoeSIM app. Install on Wi-Fi before your trip; it activates when you arrive in Malaysia.

It works on any eSIM-compatible, carrier-unlocked phone — iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, and recent Samsung Galaxy models.
