Rakuten Mobile is not connecting? Is the signal OK? I am constantly worried. Because of my job, I travel a lot, so I would like to report on the signal conditions of Rakuten Mobile from all over Japan.


This time we will be visiting Shin-Osaka Station in Osaka Prefecture.

There are two types of survey methods.


Part 1: Can't connect to Rakuten Mobile? Opensignal's simple signal check app

Opensignal is an independent global company that analyzes consumer connectivity experiences and can provide you with the upload and download performance scores for the major carriers in your location, as shown below.


The location is Shin-Osaka Station where the author is located.

Test Results

As a result, Rakuten Mobile was ranked last in downloads and the best in uploads. I hope they do better in downloads, just like they did in Hakata Station.



Part 2: Can't connect to Rakuten Mobile? Check the signal strength on your smartphone screen.

Next, I will verify another one. I use dual SIM and have a main line and a sub line for the Internet. My smartphone is dual SIM and the main line is Rakuten Mobile.


Dual SIM


Main line: Rakuten Mobile (signal 📶upper row)

Sub-line: SoftBank (signal 📶lower row)


This will be the same screen as before, but look at the number of signal bars 📶 in the top right corner 👇👇👇👇


Verify the number of radio waves

This time, Rakuten Mobile and SoftBank ended up in a draw.



What did you think?


I didn't experience any particular inconvenience at Shin-Osaka Station, but I wish they would try a little harder.

The author of this blog is a current Rakuten employee. In this blog, I will share my honest impressions of my mobile phone charges and signal conditions after switching from SoftBank, which I had been using since my student days, to Rakuten Mobile. I will share information on switching mobile phones (MNP), re-contracting, comparing mobile phones, mobile phone charges, model changes, campaigns, family discounts, and special offers. Currently, the employee referral campaign allows you to earn 14,000 points if you switch (MNP) and 7,000 points if you do not switch. Those who are re-contracting can also apply. Please make use of this opportunity to switch your smartphone or sign up for a new smartphone contract.
