20% OFF + Insurance: Japan Pocket Wifi Rental - Shinjuku, Tokyo Pickup

I got the unlimited GB with power bank. I never got to use the power bank, the battery on the main unit was very good and lasted all day, despite being in constant use. It was only connected to one phone so that might have helped with the battery life. The internet speed and connection were incredible. It never lagged, I was able to connect to all kinds of websites and apps, easily watching high definition streams and videos and video calls were smooth. I never lost connection, even on the subway and in the country. Only negative I can find is the high price but the service you get is great. Very helpful staff too, good English and very friendly. I used the Shinjuku office for pick up and drop off, details on how to find the office were clearly sent out on email.

I travelled to Japan last year for the Cherry Blossom festival covering 3 cities which included Tokyo, Kyoto and Hiroshima. I didn’t want to use roaming due to the costs involved for the length of time of my stay. Firstly, ordering from the UK was simple and straight forward and rather than rushing about an airport, as I had JR tickets to deal with, I had the unit delivered to my hotel. The unit was at the hotel on my arrival and fully charged. It was password protected and I easily paired it to my tablet and two phones. (As long as you are relatively close buy you can use all three at the same time which was handy in markets and parks). Although the charge lasts quite a while I would recommend a power bank back up which I would use for my phone anyway. The unit worked well and never failed me anywhere that I was using it throughout my whole trip. Secondly it comes with a return bag which you seal and I dropped this off with the hotel desk staff and they arranged for it to be uplifted as part of the package. In fact the whole service was simple uncomplicated and stress free with the assurance and comfort of knowing that negotiating around Japan was made a lot easier with a Wi-Fi connection for transport , food and socialising. I would recommend using Ninja Wi-Fi to anyone travelling around Japan as I will when I return again.
