What do 3G mobile phone plans include?
14 August 2008
3G mobile phone plans can offer many more services than mobile phone plans on older networks, but what are they actually likely to include? This can vary dramatically between 3G networks in Australia, but there are certainly areas of common ground.
Practically all the 3G networks in Australia focus foremost on providing value for voice calls and text messages. For instance, Telstra Next G 3G network plans are will often include a certain amount of call and message credit as part of the plan. Capped plans are becoming increasingly popular, where a capped monthly spend provides the user with a decent amount of credit, only costing more once the included credit in the cap has been used up.
One element that many 3G service providers share is that they will offer data plans separately to regular plans for 3G mobile phones. This allows users to tailor the right amount of call usage and 3G Internet usage that they need, without needing to choose plans that offer less value in all areas just to cover the sheer number of benefits of 3G. Business 3G users in particular may be interested in the number of 3G modems on offer that can allow laptops to access the Internet using 3G in Australia.
