Your eSIM automatically connects to the best available network — no manual switching.
Australia has three main carriers: Telstra (the dominant network, largest nationwide coverage especially in rural areas and the Outback), Optus (second largest, broad 5G in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth), and Vodafone Australia (best urban value, more limited outside cities). The eSIM Ahora connects to the strongest available network. Plugs are Type I (Australian, unique — three flat pins in an inverted V), 230V — you need a specific adapter from the US, Europe, or Asia.
Sydney (SYD), Melbourne (MEL), Brisbane (BNE), and Perth (PER) airports offer unlimited free WiFi. The currency is the Australian dollar (AUD); use Commonwealth Bank, Westpac, ANZ, or NAB ATMs — no commission on Visa/Mastercard up to 1000 AUD. Tipping isn't required — Australia has a high minimum wage. At the Great Barrier Reef and remote Outback zones (Uluru, Kakadu, Kimberley) coverage drops significantly — only Telstra has decent presence.
