opera vpn

buy the china sim card

i remember is got a cute logo

if not mistaken China & Hong Kong Unicom Travel Prepaid Sim Card


i use 7 days no problem ( even connect their wifi i also can use fb i dunno why, just weird )

dont knw.. u ask for free vpn.. opera is one of thm..

well i'm currently working in china for 4 months.

for short term you can try
expressVPN  or turboVPN

for long term, im using the paid service for expressVPN
so far so good.

whatsapp sometimes works, but most of the time it doesnt.
FB doesnt work at all.

If u use data roaming its ok...local sim not sure...coz i just use office line with data roaming
All fb, messenger and everything function per normal

I am typing this while in Shenzhen.

Whataspp can only send text, images and video are sometimes disabled. Connection drop.

Im using ExpressVPN, it is bloody good, will auto-reconnect in the event of connection drop.

Pay for it, free VPN is slow, might as well dont use it.

yea last 2 weeks

u use this simcard, u wont regret

no la i even call my mom video call lol

use this sim card no problem, i went china wuhan. You?

It's either super slow, or you won't receive the msg at all. Like other commenters above, video and audio is a no-no, unless you open VPN.

Also, no google, reuters, bloomberg, cnbc, gmail etc.

buy daily social pass or 30days pass.
no vpn require.

I travel to China twice recently, and in both times I roamed using China Unicom/China Mobile via Celcom & Maxis (I have 2 lines). I can use my FB app and Whatsapp with no issues.

I think the issue here is if you use local China simcards? You won’t face any issues if you roam using your own number from Malaysia.

Whatapps seems work, but not reliable.. Cannot expect receives message on time perhaps delay few minutes

Last time I went Beijing for vacation, received whatsapp from manager asking about work.
Wtf bbq mang.

Two months ago my bro went to China.
Whatsapp sometimes work, sometimes don't.
Ended up I installed wechat to communicate with him.

Roaming best

Just came back from vacation in China.

Tried and tested two VPNs that confirm can work there.

Vypr VPN and TunnelBear VPN. Express VPN also can use (and the best VPN in China actually) , but unfortunately I can't use cos I already registered for account before this trip and they detected my device and the free trial is over.

Vypr VPN would be more consistent than TunnelBear.

However, do note that both VPNs have free data limit (1gb and 500mb respectively).

If you use it for basic daily WhatsApp / Facebook / Gmail / Google, should be enough for your vacation / trip.

Do note that I bought a China Unicom sim card to use there.

For roaming with local Maxis / Digi / etc carriers not sure whether can bypass the firewall there. Seems like can from previous replies.

Edit: Opera VPN and Turbo VPN doesn't work at all.

remember to check the roaming plan of ur telco else u will get bill surprise

I have issue with whatsapp when i was in Beijing.

Damn i left "NO" before issue

Digi roam like home

TS, you bad bad luck.

OperaVPN just retired on 30/4/2018.

Luckily my return flight from China also 30/4/2018. Hehe..

Malaysia SIM card with data roaming, no problem at all. We can access the same way like Malaysia. I tried this last month.

hey ,how is your experience in using the digi roam like home in china?

Is the speed ok? Is that subscriptions is for a month?

Ah i see... if i go china on 13 March to 13 April. will it charged be on proration basis?

Activate on 13 March and use it till 13 April?
