I'm planning a trip to China and want to rely on using hotspot or tethering with my eSIM. Is it straightforward to set up, and will I face any data restrictions while doing this?

Yes, you can absolutely use hotspot or tethering with your eSIM in China. Just make sure your device supports it and that you've enabled the hotspot feature in your settings. There shouldn’t be any restrictions, but keep an eye on your data usage.
I used my eSIM in China last month and had no issues with hotspotting. Just remember to check your data plan limits to avoid extra charges. It worked great for sharing with my friends!
I found using tethering in China to be convenient. My eSIM allowed it without any hassle, just like my regular SIM. Just be sure to have a stable internet connection.
I had some trouble connecting my laptop to my mobile hotspot initially. Restarting my phone helped, and it worked perfectly afterward. Great experience overall!
It's a good point to consider different areas in China for connectivity. Urban areas generally have much better coverage than rural ones. Always check the network signal strength for optimal performance.
