Friends had recommended Genki Mobile as a must have for our family adventure to Japan this year. Usually, the process of finding the right provider, the right option at a price you can trust is tedious and afterwards you have that 'should have used a different provider'.Not with Genki Mobile.1. Price: We paid with paypal online 10/10 easy and value for money2. Collection: We collected it at the hotel reception when we arrived (could have been at the airport but coming in late we requested to post it to the hotel) 10/103. Battery life (teenagers sucking it dry all day) 10/10. never had to use the USB battery pack that comes with the package.4. Coverage. 10/10. even top of a mountain it worked.5. Return. 10.10. It comes in an envelope. You use the same envelope to return it. We dropped off the envelope at the post box in Lawson's in Osaka airport. Easy.We went for the pocket wifi option so all our phones could connect.When things work and work well it's important to say so.Pretty Cool!

Genki wifi router works perfectly and the assistance we have received with its renting has been excellent. Returning the device was super easy. An excellent choice for tourists in Japan. Highly recommend!

Extremely simple process to get the pocket-wifi and return it. Able to get it same-day after the other service we tried to get pocket-wifi from fell through. Will absolutely go with Genki Mobile again the next time I return to Japan!

**Amazing customer service- I went to Japan over a month ago, and Genki Mobile was a life-saver for me. I had originally rented Pocket WiFi from another "popular company" and paid around $120 for the WiFi, but that company NEVER responded to two of my emails after I accidentally forgot to pick up my WiFi (I had emailed them asking if they could ship the WiFi over to my hotel, with me covering the additional charges). You will run into NONE of these headaches with Genki Mobile. Not to mention, my order with Genki Mobile cost around HALF the price. The in-person pickup is super convenient since it is easy to find Genki Mobile's office, and all the staff are so friendly. I also never ran out of WiFi every day. I used the WiFi to access Google Maps for whenever I traveled, and the WiFi never randomly disconnected. The WiFi itself works 100% accurately.

We rented portable wifi for a 9 day trip to Japan. The router came with a battery pack, which was super useful! No issues, glad we chose this company. Pickup at the airport was easy once the staff realized it was a Genki Mobile pickup, and returning through prepaid mail was a breeze.

When I moved to Tokyo, there's a 4 days gap between my move-in date and the WiFi installation date with NTT.Luckily, they have a campaign and they offered me a free pocket wifi that I can use until I have my wifi installed. From delivery to usage, everything is free. They even provide a letter pack envelope so you can return it conveniently.All services are english-friendly, and they even go the extra mile to help you with your concerns and solve issues together!I'm writing this review after 2 weeks of using their gold plan service. No downtime and amazing coverage! I'm in a 50+ sqm apartment connected to the 5G line and I don't suffer from any latency issues. Love it!

I was traveling far to get to Japan and was nervous about My SIM card and data but Genki mobile was ready and waiting for me in an easily accessible place at the airport. It was very simple to set up and gave me great service and support during my long three month stay. I was able to contact all my friends and family no matter where I was. And sight seeing was made easy with quick flowing data. I was very happy with my purchase and rental with Genki mobile and would definitely recommend it in the future. I was also quite happy with the price as it was quite cheap compared to other sellers.

I had issues getting my connection fixed at the time of my arrival to Japan, however the team made a super great effort to provide a good support and they got me a portable wifi during the period I was still trying to get my connection done.This kind of due diligence is what you expect from a service company. I am very pleased with them.

This pocket wifi worked great! Rented it for 5 weeks. Fast internet connection and we never needed the extra battery that was included. This was 1/2 the cost we were finding with other companies. It was at the airport when we arrived and ,with the provided envelope, easy to return by dropping it in a mail box. We will definitely use this company again on our next trip to Tokyo.

Second time using Genki. Their communication is superb and they do as they say they will in terms of delivery. The pocket wifi worked well everywhere i went and 1Gb a day was more than enough. The battery was good for 9-10 hours too!Highly recommend Genki

I used this company to rent pocket wifi during my trip in Japan. The communication went very smoothly. I picked up a package containing the device in the Tokyo airport and simply had to switch it on and connect to the wifi. The device lasted for around 5-6 hours, and a power bank was provided to charge it for longer usage. Very much worth it in terms of price/quality.

We got Genki pocket wifi as a free service while our internet application is still on process. We got 1gb data per day as soon as we submitted the application. It was delivered to our house and returning it was easy as well as you can return it via mail or hand it yourself. set up was easy as well.

Pickup at Haneda International Terminal was easy. Using it was easy plus instructions were included if needed. Had full coverage across whole of Japan. Came with a portable battery bank if the device needed charging. Highly recommended.The only minor issue was dropoff. If you return it with everything inside the provided pouch, note that it will be too big in the middle to fit in the dropoff mail slot. If you separate the items from the pouch and spread it evenly in the dropoff envelope, you won't have any issues. Just keep that in mind.

I chose Genki Mobile because I wanted to pick the device up at the International terminal at Haneda Airport and drop it off at Kansai airport. The pickup and drop off worked exactly the way they were supposed to.We used the mobile wi-fi for more than two weeks in Tokyo, Kyoto, Takayama, Hakone and Koyasan. The connection was excellent and at time it had 5 devices connected to it. It would not last the whole day on one charge; that was not a problem for us but others might like to use a battery booster.

I used the SIM card for my 10 days in Hokkaido. The SIM card was sent to the hostel where I was staying and I was able to get it without any hassle upon check-in. SIM card worked beautifully throughout my whole journey in Hokkaido. Returning it was also a breeze. Just drop the prepaid docket at the Post Office and it’s done. Will most definitely use it again.

We used the pocket Wi-Fi during our three weeks in Japan and everything worked fine: Pick-up and returning the device was easy and connection was good almost all the time...just had some problems inside of buildings in southern Honshū, but isn't really worth mentioning. Thanks a lot for the service!

Complete satisfaction; uninterrupted service without any glitches. I was in the far corners of Japan, outside cities, along the coast of Japan sea in Hokkaido, and it worked perfectly even there. The days I used the gps for the whole days, I had to recharge it once during the day but that was expected. I will only suggest having the data tracking part is a bit simpler, as the Aterm Mobile map might be difficult to navigate without knowing Japanese, but otherwise no complain about the service. I will recommend it to everyone, and will use it again on my next visit.

Очень удобный вариант. На момент поиска один из самых дешевых и простых. Получила в аэропорту, вернула - кинув в почтовый ящик там же перед отлетом. Вайфай работал стабильно и на хорошей скорости, трафик не экономила. Токио, Йокогама, Хиросима, Киото - полет нормальный.Посоветую - да.Воспользуюсь еще раз - да.

Excellent customer service, picked up at the airport. Wifi worked well at all times when using. My daughter and I used while visiting my son and his family which helped to communicate with them when we were out on our own in your beautiful country. The return process was as easy as the pickup.

Excellent customer service . They sent numerous emails to keep me informed. The portable unit was small and never let me down , even in the remote Kurokawa onsen area . We picked it up and dropped it off at the airport, even though we landed at midnight it was still waiting for us.£55 GBP is a lot of money for 2 weeks but in a country where we do not speak the language and we did a lot of travelling it was well worth the money .I recommend Genki Mobile .

Good bang for the buck. Previously I used Sakura but decided to give this service a shot since they use NTT Docomo. Only dropouts were in Yokohama during Pikachu parade but with the amount of people playing Pokemon Go it was kind of expected. Battery lasted almost all day even using my laptop on shinkansen to update my web store
