Cheaper MiFi – Huawei E5331

My nan wants to get online so that she can email her daughters. It’s a simple request and she already has a laptop, but she doesn’t want any “messing” with her phone line and she takes the laptop wherever she goes. This could be my solution. The new Huawei E5331 MiFi will grab a data connection via a Three SIM and pump out a secure and completely configurable WiFi hotspot for you to connect to.

It’s dubbed a “value MiFi” device because you can now pick one up for just £29.99 and then hook into a one-month rolling contract at £15.99 per month for 5 GB of data. Either that, or you can pay £49.99 on Pay As You Go with 1GB of data.

It has 4.5 hours battery life and a simple one-button connection plus there’s an LED display to let you know what’s going on.
