Quick answer

A Talisim Denmark eSIM works in Copenhagen: 17 plans from $1.14, 1GB–50GB, up to 3G, 4G, 5G, on TDC, 3. Top-ups: yes, on most plans. Data only: no phone number, calls or texts. WhatsApp, FaceTime, Signal and iMessage work over data. Hotspot and tethering work, as far as your phone allows, and use the same data.

Where the signal goes

No gaps worth mentioning, metro included. The driverless M1 to M4 lines all carry a signal end to end.

Getting around

Cycle. The city is famously said to have more bikes than people, and the lanes are separated from traffic.
