NTT docomo 5G and SoftBank 5G cover Shibuya, Shinjuku, Asakusa, Ginza and the entire Yamanote Line corridor in Tokyo with reliable data for Suica taps, Google Maps walks through Tsukiji and Harajuku, and Tabelog restaurant reservations in the side alleys. Signal holds across the entire Shibuya Crossing scramble and inside the modern Shibuya Sky observatory, drops inside the deeper wooden halls of Senso-ji Temple where the heavy tile roofs and the dense incense smoke block reception, and weakens on the upper observation decks of Tokyo Skytree and Tokyo Tower where the elevation and the surrounding high-rise buildings reduce the line of sight to the nearest tower.

Yes. Use your physical SIM for calls/SMS and the eSIM for mobile data. Disable roaming on your physical SIM.

Yes. eSIM offers instant activation without visiting a store. Coverage matches physical SIMs in covered areas.
Yes. 5G works on most Tokyo Metro and Toei Subway lines above ground and inside the modern station buildings for navigation and messaging, but expect drops in the deeper tunnels between stations, especially on the deeper Marunouchi and Hibiya lines. We recommend downloading offline maps of the metro system before boarding because the underground stretches lose signal quickly. Your eSIM is useful for navigating the JR Yamanote Line with Google Maps, booking Tabelog restaurants, and translating menus with Papago. Note that Suica and PASMO IC cards require a physical card from the station vending machines; your eSIM keeps the data running while you tap the card on the gates.
Install before traveling, activate upon arrival in Tokyo.
