Getting Data Sim in Kansai

So I visited Japan for the Cherry blossoms earlier this year. While I was there, i bought so-net’s Prepaid LTE Data Sim card. Unlike b-mobile which needs to be pre-ordered and shipped to the airport, so-net’s prepaid data sim are sold either via a vending machine or a shop inside the Airport. Which is of course, extremely useful for people who decide to splurge on a data sim card in the last minute. Not to mention the data plans are the cheapest by far.

While 1GB seemed like a reasonable amount for 11 days, I found myself maxing out by day 7 and I didn’t even watch any Youtube videos! It seemed like Samsung Note 3 (phone I was using then) sucks a lot of data. But if you need to top up you account, you can do so online. I had some problem with the website when I topped up with my mobile phone. The confirmation page didn’t come up and I ended up charging 2000 yen to my credit card twice -_____-;; So here’s a heads up for you guys.

Rather like conventional SIMs known from smartphones, IoT SIM cards come in completely different shape variables, from scaled-down to miniaturized scale to nano SIMs. These are common in any cellular-connected equipment, as restricted to, e.g., WiFi-connected devices.
