Your Guide to Choosing a Phone Plan in Canada
You might ask, why need a phone upgrade when going to Canada? Kabayan, here’s the deal–not all phone brands from the Philippines work in Canada.
Let’s get technical on this! Not all phones are compatible with the frequency bands and network technologies used by carriers in different countries. Simply put, you need a phone that works locally in Canada or else you lose out on connection. Phone brands like oppo, Realme, vivo, itel, infinix, Xiaomi, and Huawei don’t support a Canada SIM. With 5G as the leading network, you need the latest models from brands like apple, Samsung, and Google Pixel to connect in Canada.
Now, how do you choose among Canada phone plans? Here’s a guide for you.
Assess Your Needs
Is your phone mostly for work communication? Will you be streaming videos and music a lot? Do you often livestream things to do in canada? Do you prefer an eSIM Canada phone?
You must understand your phone lifestyle to find the best phone fit to your needs. You don’t want to spend too much on a phone that’s more geared towards livestreaming features when you’re not really a social media person. Simply being aware of your usage patterns will save you from overpaying on features you don’t need.
Choose a Type of Plan
When it comes to postpaid vs prepaid plan, we recommend getting a postpaid so you have a fixed monthly phone bill. This way, you can be wary if you’re overspending or incurring surcharges because you have an expected plan package as a guide.
What is postpaid and prepaid?
Prepaid Plans: Pay for your usage in advance. Ideal for those who want control over their spending and no long-term commitment.
Postpaid Plans: Pay monthly based on your usage. These plans often come with better perks and higher data limits.
Choose among Major SIM Carriers
Choose Flexible Payment Terms
A phone upgrade might cost you more than you expect. Going to Canada will require you a 5G-ready phone so that would mean buying the latest models. But here’s the good news, CanadianSIM offers flexible payment terms to make your upgrade a lot easier to take.
You can choose to go with:
Save & Return (recommended). Pay a downpayment fee on your phone for less monthly fees.
