Airtel 4G Hotspot Data Benefit Explained

It is worth noting that before the introduction of these two new plans for the users of Airtel 4G hotspot device, Airtel was only shipping the Rs 399 prepaid plan for the users which was offering 50GB data per month. After the exhaustion of data, the speed was throttled down to 80 Kbps. Although the plan was an excellent offering for a lot of subscribers, it was the only one that the customers could opt for. But, with the new revision, there are two plan options available for the customers. The benefits of either the postpaid or the prepaid plan will be available for the customers who purchase the Airtel 4G hotspot device for Rs 1,500.

As part of the additional bundled offering with Airtel 4G hotspot, the postpaid plan which is available with the Airtel 4G hotspot device is the Rs 499 infinity postpaid plan. The benefits of this plan include 75GB per month data FUP with an after FUP speed of 80 Kbps. To avail these data benefits, the subscribers will have to recharge the hotspot number with the Rs 499 infinity postpaid plan by going to the nearest retailer or Airtel store. Similarly, Airtel 4G hotspot users will get the other option of recharging with a prepaid plan which will offer 1.5GB data per day for 84 days. The after-FUP speed on this plan is the same as above, i.e. 80 Kbps.

Airtel 4G Hotspot Features

The Airtel 4G hotspot is a device similar to Jio-Fi, and it will let you connect your phone or other devices like laptop, tablets etc. on the go. You will be able to connect up to 10 devices at once to the hotspot device. Also, the device comes with a 1500mAh battery, and it is expected to provide up to 6 hours of battery life. The Airtel 4G hotspot also comes with the feature of automatically switching to the 3G network in case 4G network is not available; this way the hotspot device ensures that you get uninterrupted internet access.
