Hello, I would like to know if anyone knows anything about this. I am going back to Japan temporarily, and my cell phone is an iPhone, and I have a contract with Spectrum for an unlimited plan.
If I use my phone as it is in Japan, will the price go up ?
Should I set it to Airplane mode ?
Should I buy a SIM card after arriving in Japan ?
Thank you very much.

According to the Spectrum web site, International Roaming seems to be supported. ( I have never used it and don't really know. You may want to check directly with Spectrum to see what the specific cost will be. When I used to go to Japan, I used to buy a SIM card for Japan from Amazon, etc. before I went there. Of course, it is possible to buy a SIM card after you arrive in Japan. It all depends on you.

Spectrum's Data Roaming rate is . $ 001/mB, which is $ 10 for 1G and $ 30 for 3G, which may be a little high for those who use a lot of data.
There are some eSIM compatible data services available in Japan, such as "Ubigi" and "MOGO", which are introduced in the blog below. Of course, the service uses an eSIM, so your phone must be eSIM compatible. \모바일(If it's an iphone, XS/XS Max/XR or later model ) According to this, 3G / in 30 days $ with 9.
