Kena Mobile Italy Prepaid Plans Explored (2025)

Kena Mobile is a TIM Italy (budget) sub-brand.

It was TIM Italy's response to Iliad entering the Italian telecom market (which resulted in Italy having the lowest mobile data rates in Europe and the second-lowest worldwide).

Coverage – Kena Mobile

Kena Mobile is a TIM Italy (budget) sub-brand, meaning Kena Mobile uses the TIM Italy network.

To find out what to expect in terms of coverage with Kena Mobile, jump to the TIM Italy Coverage section in my Italy SIM card buying guide.

Note that you will not have 5G NR access with Kena Mobile (unlike going with TIM Italy directly).

SIM Card Price – Kena Mobile

You can get a Kena Mobile SIM card for 5 EUR from Kena Mobile dealers (1/2 – not in TIM Italy stores), including Esselunga, Pan & Panorama.

Kena mobile has no eSIMs.

It is also possible to get a Coop Voce eSIM for the same price as a regular SIM card.

You can consider getting a travel eSIM for Italy, which can, in specific scenarios, be cheaper than getting a SIM card from Coop Voce.

Especially if you get a Europe-wide eSIM (for when you visit at least two or more supported European countries) or a global eSIM (for frequent travelers visiting multiple continents).

In my Italy eSIM buying guide, I analyze various eSIM options of eSIM providers I have tested extensively worldwide.

But I will introduce them here quickly:

• Airalo: Mamma Mia (Italy only), Eurolink (39 countries in Europe) & Discover+ (130 countries worldwide + up to 200 worldwide minutes & 200 worldwide SMS) – use code NEWTOAIRALO15 (15% off – first-time users only) or AIRALOESIM10 (10% off)
• Alosim: Italy & Europe (32 countries) – use code PTW (5% off – no limits)
• Holafly: Italy & Europe (32 countries) – all variants in both options include unlimited data + up to 120 Europe-wide calls – use code PHONETRAVELWIZ (5% off – no limits)
• Nomad: Italy, Europe (30 or 35 countries, depending on the variant) & Global (109 or 139 countries, depending on the variant) – use code ADU123 (3 USD off – first-time users only)

Once again, check out my Italy eSIM buying guide to learn more about these eSIM options.

For now, I will continue with Kena mobile.

Note that Kena Mobile offers VoLTE (Voice over LTE (4G)) if your phone supports it and you have enabled it in the settings but no VoWiFi (Voice over WiFi).
