If you're in Hongkong and have ever watched enviously as others used Gemini to write code, handle translations, and generate images while you could only sigh in frustration, good news has arrived. Google's AI assistant Gemini has officially rolled out comprehensive availability in Hongkong, allowing local direct access without needing any proxy.
Official Launch Announcement
Gemini is now fully unlocked for the Hong Kong region. Hong Kong users can now directly visit gemini.google.com and log in using a Google account without any additional setup. The Gemini Advanced subscription has also been launched simultaneously.
1What has changed before and after the launch?
Prior to this, Hong Kong users visiting Gemini would encounter regional restriction notices, or even if the page could be opened, some features could not be used properly. This full rollout means:
❌ Before Launch
- Accessing Gemini prompts region unavailability
- Missing features or abnormal responses
- Required proxies to bypass restrictions
- Gemini Advanced could not be subscribed to
✅ After Launch
- Direct connection via local Hong Kong IP, no proxy needed
- All features fully available
- Gemini Advanced available for normal subscription
- Full integration with Google Workspace

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
No. This is a full official rollout. Local Hong Kong IPs can directly access gemini.google.com without proxy tools. If you previously needed a VPN to access it, you can now turn it off and try again.
The free version (Gemini 2.0 Flash) can handle daily Q&A, basic copywriting, and simple image analysis, which is completely sufficient for light users. If you need to handle ultra-long documents, Deep Research, or more complex reasoning tasks, upgrading to Gemini Advanced (approx. HK$155/month) is more suitable. You can also purchase ready-made Gemini Pro accounts on TGXaccount at a more affordable price.
Their positioning is slightly different: Gemini is deeply integrated with the Google suite. If you use Gmail and Google Sheets for business on a daily basis, Gemini's integration experience is smoother. ChatGPT has a more mature plugin ecosystem and more stable copywriting generation quality. It is recommended to use both together, and you can purchase the corresponding accounts on TGXaccount.
It fully supports both Traditional and Simplified Chinese. You can specify in your prompt, "Please write in written Cantonese customary to Hong Kong users." Gemini has a good understanding of written Cantonese, and the output is quite authentic.
Content quality is only one aspect; the account environment is equally critical. If the account itself is unstable or the IP is not clean, even the best content cannot be published. It is recommended to use standard overseas social media accounts. TGXaccount provides mature accounts for platforms such as Facebook and Instagram. You can contact Telegram customer service for details.
After the launch in the Hong Kong region, direct subscriptions to Gemini Advanced are supported using Hong Kong credit cards (Visa, Mastercard) at a price of approximately HK$155/month. You can also subscribe via Google One to get 2TB of cloud storage space at the same time. If you need ready-made accounts, please refer to TGXaccount.
