Plans and connectivity

Compare mobile with the details that matter.

Start with how you use your phone, then compare the total commitment. SIM-only and handset plans solve different needs, while coverage remains personal to the places you use most.

A practical buying brief

Match data to real use

Check recent usage before paying for more data. Video and hotspot use consume far more than messaging, maps and ordinary browsing.

Separate phone and airtime costs

For pay-monthly handsets, compare the upfront payment and every monthly charge over the full term. Also check what happens to the airtime payment after the handset element ends.

Check coverage where it matters

A national coverage percentage cannot describe your home, commute or workplace. Use provider coverage tools and, where practical, test the network before a long commitment.

Read roaming and fair-use rules

Destinations, data caps and charges vary. Unlimited at home does not necessarily mean unlimited abroad or while tethering other devices.

Check before you commit

Current information wins.

Coverage varies by location, device and network conditions. Final pricing, coverage and eligibility are determined by the provider; check its current terms before purchase.
