All these eSIM providers (over)sell bottom-of-the-barrel capacity with a middleman (or more), which means the connectivity you get (if you manage to get connected at all) is going to be slow, high-latency, tunneled through a random country (where the top-level middleman is located) and with unknown/unpredictable traffic shaping/censorship policies (the middleman himself often doesn't know and has no control over this).
Do not get fooled by the generous-looking data allowances, in practice you should consider yourself lucky if you actually manage to use up even 10% of your data allowance without giving up. These eSIMs should be only used as emergency last-resort connectivity for the sole purpose of arranging local connectivity from a local ISP (get a prepaid SIM from the most popular local carrier of wherever you're visiting).
