Here’s our fourth installment of The Data Series, where we’ll splice in some tips and tricks on maximizing your data and choosing which Solis Data Plan is right for you based on your travel itinerary and destination.
Wherever you are in the world, your data should keep up with your life—not slow it down. If you’re using a Solis Wi-Fi hotspot, you already know the freedom of secure, contract-free connectivity. But how can you make that connection go even further?
This guide walks through simple data-saving habits and how to choose the right Solis data plan based on your travel style—so you stay connected and in control.
Simple Tips to Maximize Your Data
Even with the flexibility of Solis data plans, stretching your data makes sense. Try these tips to reduce usage without sacrificing convenience:
-
Download before you go
Save maps, playlists, and streaming content while you’re on Wi-Fi. -
Monitor background app activity
Turn off automatic refresh and location tracking for apps you don’t need while traveling. -
Disable auto-updates
Set your apps and device to update only when connected to Wi-Fi, not while using hotspot data. -
Lower your streaming quality
Choose standard definition for music and video streaming to use significantly less data. -
Use your device’s data-saving features
Most smartphones and devices let you track usage and even set data limits—great tools for staying within your plan.
Choosing the Right Solis Data Plan Based On Your Destination
Solis plans are prepaid, flexible, and designed to support your lifestyle. We’ve broken down our plans based on Unlimited, Daypasses, and Pay-Per-GB. But what about in terms of country or region? Here’s how to pick the best fit for your needs:
Global Plans: For International Travel
Solis Global Plans offers seamless connectivity in over 140+ countries if traveling between countries or continents. You can choose unlimited monthly data or a pay-as-you-go option. It’s ideal for digital nomads, business travelers, or long-term explorers.
Regional Plans (Like Asia): For Multi-Country Travel
Staying within one region? Solis Regional Plans—like the Asia Data Plan—are more affordable than Global and perfect for multi-country trips within a specific area (like Thailand to Vietnam to Japan). They’re designed for travelers who want broader coverage at a lower price point.
Local Plans (Like Japan): For Country-Specific Travel
If you're only traveling within one country—such as Japan—Solis Local Plans are optimized for that experience. The Japan Data Plan, for instance, offers reliable, high-speed connectivity, specifically within Japan. These plans are great for residents, roadtrippers, or anyone staying put in one place.
Not sure which plan you’re seeing? SIMO’s platform auto-detects your location and recommends the most relevant plan—Global, Regional, or Local—when you log in through the app or website.
Plan Smarter: A Quick Comparison
And because all Solis plans are prepaid, you can switch anytime—no commitments, no surprises.
Make the Most of Your Connection
Here are a few extra ways to get more value from your Solis hotspot:
Use Daypasses for short-term needs: Just need a few days of data? Solis Global Daypasses are great for quick trips.Switch between plans as needed: Start global, go local—it’s easy to change plans based on your location and usage.
Share your connection: Your Solis hotspot can support multiple devices at once, saving data costs across your tech.
