Mexico: Mobile Coverage & Carriers
Mexico's mobile market is served by three major carriers: Telcel, AT&T Mexico, and Movistar. All three networks support 3G, 4G/LTE, and 5G services, which are commercially launched across the country. For roaming visitors, eSIM connectivity typically relies on LTE bands including B2 (1900 MHz), B4 (AWS), B5 (850 MHz), and B28 (700 MHz), alongside 5G band n78 (3.5 GHz).
Local Mexican carriers issue eSIMs, enabling straightforward activation for both residents and visitors seeking mobile connectivity. The availability of eSIM support across the major networks provides flexibility for users to switch carriers or activate service without requiring physical SIM cards.
