How Vietnam competes with Southeast Asian neighbors as a digital nomad destination

"Thailand [is] a much better option all round. Friendlier, more polite people, much less pollution than Vietnam and more modern but still with the charms and monetary good value of Southeast Asia."

"Considering Vietnam has terribly inconsistent internet I would say the answer is the airport going Bali or Thailand."

"I have spent 8 months in the last two years working from Vietnam without a single issue. Personally, having tried [Hanoi, HCMC, Da Nang, Hoi An, Nha Trang and Phu Quoc], I consider Da Nang to be the best option overall."
Mario Rossi

"Bali internet is way worse than Vietnam, Thailand overrated destination. I prefer Malaysia, better standards, 5g everywhere, reliable.

"I started from Hanoi 15 years ago. Then check other locations around the country. My personal choice is Vung Tau - nice mix of resort and gas/oil/port city with a lot of international underwater cables coming. Quite close to HCMC in case you need to travel overseas. Number 2 is Quy Nhon - calm, cheap, wonderful nature, 15Tb cable overseas. But not so easy to reach in/out (my personal choice is a train to HCMC and back)."
