Going to Portugal for 4 weeks and want to get an eSIm. Airalo offers 2: MEO and fofo. We'll be in the Algarve for the most part. MEO seems familiar but we haven't seen fofo. Any thoughts?

I see you are looking at the country specific esims - so you will ONLY be in Portugal for a month. I know nothing about the difference in service between the two, but I personally would not get the MEO. It offers a lot of data but only for 15 days. And you can’t top up, so after 15 days you would be forced to buy and install a new eSim. I would go with one of the Fofo packages valid for 30 days. I use about 1.5 G/week (my average over the last 2 years of using Airalo). So I would probably get the 5G/$10 and then top up with 1G or 2G toward the end of my stay as I saw where my usage was. Saves installing a new esim.
The app, once you log in, will show you how much you have used.

I used a Vodaphone physical sim and found it quite satisfactory . Check out their Travelers programs. I don't know if they offer them a eSims
