Cheap MTN GLO Etisalat Airtel Data Plans for Android Devices

Android users lately are been faced with the problem of which data plan to use on their data sucking devices. Yes it is no news that android devices uses much of data for internet and our internet service providers are not ready to give android users any good and cheap mobile data plan.

I am just trying to give you the near cheap data plans from all the major internet service providers  which you can review and compare yourself  to help you make the right choice of a data plan for your android device.

Please Note: The first think to consider when making a data plan choice is research how good a particular network is in your neighborhood, this is very important, for example if Airtel Nigeria decides to sell 1Gb of data for 100Naira and all you have is EDGE in your area for Airtel , then you will just waste your 100 Naira because you will not be able to do anything with it. EDGE is already yesterday’s technology and even it is important to know the speed of 3G/WCDMA/UMTS/HSDPA in your area if you have one, because some are as bad as EDGE.

1. MTN Nigeria: No doubt MTN is the big boy in this game and I must confess there services are way more better and coverage is great, if you have MTN HSDPA service in your neighborhood then you have nothing to worry about concerning speed, all your concern should be the cost of the plan, EDGE service from MTN still okay on mobile devices.
