Which has better LTE coverage — Hong Kong or Singapore?

Hong Kong runs primarily on HKT (PCCW) and 3HK. Singapore runs primarily on Singtel and StarHub. Both deliver strong urban coverage; rural penetration depends on the destination's terrain — see the country pages for full coverage maps.

Should I install my eSIM before flying to Hong Kong or Singapore?

Yes — install at home on Wi-Fi for both. Activation deferred to first connection means the validity clock only starts when you land. There is no advantage to waiting until you arrive.

Any iPhone XS or newer, Pixel 3 or newer, and most modern Samsung Galaxy devices support eSIM. You can store both eSIMs on the same phone and switch between them in Settings without removing anything.
