eSIM isn't nearly as easy to get outside of the US as it is from the inside. I can't imagine getting an eSIM if/when I go to India again in the future. Getting a physical SIM was REALLY REALLY difficult.

that said, all of the US carriers have extensive international roaming agreements and international data/voice is much cheaper these days.

Take a look at Airalo if you haven't already. They have an India option which doesn't require KYC. $13 for a 30 day 3GB eSIM.

how was getting a physical SIM difficult? There are stalls at every airport I’ve been to India

it's impossible once you _leave_ the airport

also, if you're like me and get in at 0200, no stalls for you
