| Weaker spots | The Amazon interior, the Pantanal and some remote beaches |
The network shown on each plan is the one your eSIM connects to.
Which plan should I choose?
- City trip to Rio or São Paulo: maps, messaging, ride-hailing and social media fit in a small total-data plan.
- Two weeks or more across regions: choose a mid-size plan if you navigate all day, upload photos or share a hotspot.
- Remote work or lots of video: pick the largest plan and use Wi-Fi for big downloads.
