Update: The Smart Bro Microsite, Sugod Na just went up. Check it out here!
As most of you may have notice, I’ve got ads up for the new Smart Bro Prepaid. Couldn’t blog about it until the banners were up.
The Pre-Paid Kit for Smart Bro Mobile 3G is available for Php4,500, one-time. That includes the USB dongle, the SIM card and a 30-peso free load (that’s one and a half hours of free credits).
The pre-paid kit can be re-loaded with Smart Bro pre-paid cards worth Php100 and Php300. You cna also use e-Load to top up your account for as low as Php30 from any of the local e-Load stations (i.e. tiange)
I saw one 3G USB dongle in a shop at MOA and they cost Php7,500. The Php4,500 looks cheaper. I still use both of my HSDPA phones to hook up but the dongle’s advantage is you don’t have to worry about running out of cellphone battery.
i think it all boils down now to the location, and the strength of the signal. i have both smartbro plugit and globe tattoo. back at home, smartbro works really fast. globe doesn’t connect at all. here naman in makati, super bilis ng globe, intermittent naman ang smart.
in terms of cost… halos pareho lang. si smartbro, every 30-minute blocks and pagbabawas niya ng load while si globe naman, 15-minute blocks.
so if you are very very particular about and need instant connectivity anywhere, suggest you buy both.
pambihira lalo akong naguguluhan- me nagrereklamo, me pumupuri, malalaman ko lang siguro kung bibili ako, kaso baka naman kung bumili na ako, makakarelate naman ako sa mga nagrereklamo….kakalito??????
bwisit ang smartbro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wala pa akong 1 hour sa pagbrowse sa web ubos na load ko.
