Globe's Smartphone Gadget Updates!

My 2-year lock-in period with a cellular network service provider was just over and I'm being offered a brand new mobile phone to continue. Indeed local competition with telecommunication networks is getting stiffer and Globe is making sure they stay ahead of the game with new smartphone handsets and plans.

Pushing Mobile Data Services


The proactive stance of Globe in offering these smartphone plan packages shows it's commitment in encouraging subscribers to use mobile data services. An Android handset such as the Samsung C3303 can already be availed with a Postpaid Plan 499.  Sealing the deal is the free 30-day trial of Globe Super Surf bundled in select plans.

So which one is for you? Power-wise I say you got a good deal in any of the Samsung phones since they're all powered by Android Froyo already. But my fianl choice would be the Samsung Galaxy 5 i5503 Europa since  I'm a social networking and Facebook addict. :)
