Airtel offers up to 67% more data to the prepaid users

July 18, 2016 by computerera

Airtel announced new data tariff details for the prepaid users. The new mobile plans offer up to 67% more 3G/4G data compared to the data available right now.

Till now, those who recharge Rs. 655 per month are getting 3 GB 3G/4G mobile data. The same plan got revised, and it offers 5 GB mobile data with the new scheme. The volume of the increase is 67% in total.

If you are using Rs. 455 mobile recharge plan to get 2 GB of 3G/4G data per month, the latest revision offers you 3 GB of mobile data without any extra cost.

Smaller sachet data packs also got the hike in the data volume. Those who use Rs. 25 2G pack will get 145 MB of mobile data instead of 100 MB.

People already know the fact that Airtel is more rigid in offering extra benefits to the users compared to other mobile networks. The latest move from the Airtel clearly indicates that the company is feeling insecure with the Reliance strategies. We can expect more good news and better mobile traffic in the near future once the real fight in between mobile operators begins.

Now you can send Speed test results to TRAI to complain on Telecom companies

July 2, 2016 by computerera

Are you getting dead slow 3G speeds? Complaining to the customer care people doesn’t work most of the times. There are a lot of issues associated with poor network speeds.

Keeping the problems of the 3G users in the mind, TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India) released one dedicated app to measure 3G, 4G speeds of our network. The Android app named “MySpeed (TRAI)” is right now available through “Mobile Sewa App Store.” maintained by the Govt. Of India.

The Mobile Sewa App Store and the “My Speed” Android app is officially launching on 5th July 2016. Once you have installed the app on your phone, it will measure the present download, and upload speeds of your 3G/4G network along with the signal quality and send those details directly to the TRAI.

The application just only transmits the download and upload speeds only; it doesn’t send any personal information to the TRAI, so no need to worry about the privacy.

You already know the fact that the Ministry of Telecommunications and TRAI was jointly working hard to improve telecom infrastructure and call quality since few months. The latest move itself helps to the end user to get better mobile data speeds. People already using “Speed Test” Android app to measure data speeds, but it only displays the stats for yourself only, it can’t send stats to the TRAI.

Another Cheap phone scam – 3G Phone for Rs. 888

April 27, 2016 by computerera

Few days back we saw the controversy of Freedom 251. Myself I tried to educate vigorously on this issue, finally people understood the real loopholes behind that Media over exposed project.

There is another incident similar to Freedom 251 with the name of the cheap phone. Jaipur-based Docoss Multimedia Private Limited started bookings for Docosss X1 smartphone model which priced at Rs. 888.

Here are the specifications of this phone:

RAM: 1 GB
2.0 MP Primary Camera
0.3 MP Secondary Camera
1300 mAh Long-Lasting Battery
1.2GHz, Dual-Core Cortex A7
4G LTE
4 inch IPS screen
Android 4.4.2 (KitKat) OS
Dual Sim (GSM + WCDMA)
Expandable Storage Capacity of 32 GB

It also seems like another scam even though Docoss promised to deliver the phone by 2nd May i.e. in a week time from now.

The customer care numbers it provided are not working. When I tried to explore the website, web hosting firm displaying “Resource Limit is Reached” message. By seeing this, we can estimate that this site runs only on shared hosting which has limited system resources.

Coming to the phone specifications 4GB internal storage at this point of time is completely useless. Android latest versions themselves occupy more than 6 GB. So stay away from the phone, don’t fall in such sort of cheap phone traps.

It is available through COD (Cash On Delivery) only, this may sound good for those we have hopped on this phone, but having a COD delivery system is not sufficient to trust phones.

Even you used COD earlier; you are not allowed to check the device in the presence of courier boy. First of all, you must pay the COD amount. Then only you are permitted to verify the box. In this context, people around the nation got mangos and bricks instead of Phones in recent times.
