Telstra ZTE F165i Mobile Phone 2016

Telstra ZTE F165i Mobile Phone

The F165i is the follow up to the original country phone the F165. The new version features an improved design and AGPS for navigating, but it retains the extendable antenna of its predecessor for and has the blue tick for superior reception in areas of weaker coverage. The F165i scores keypad made up of very large keys and an easy to read screen. Menus are still simple and easy to navigate, with a very intuitive feel.

Although ideal for users requiring top coverage performance in a durable case due to the size of the F165i we recommend a pouch or leather case to carry the F165i around.

Performance

Quoted battery life is three and a half hours talk time and 250 hours of standby time, a car-charger seems a wise purchase to be sure you always have a full charge.

Prepaid Mobile Review - Telstra Prepaid Cap+ 2016

Prepaid Mobile Review - Telstra Prepaid Cap+

Telstra is by far Australia's biggest mobile phone carrier. This covers both post paid mobile plans as well as prepaid mobile plans. Over the past few years however the range of prepaid mobile options made available by Telstra has become rather stale.

Optus on the other hand have invested considerably in new product development and even launched their unlimited prepaid offer in late 2010 Optus Dollar Days. What all of this has meant is that Telstra is no longer is losing market share and their lack of product variety is contributing to this.

 

 Telstra Prepaid Cap+ 2016

Telstra has never been the cheapest in Australia. Much of their market share is on the back of being the biggest carrier as well as having the best reception. So when they launched their new Prepaid Cap+ plans, I wasn't expecting the best in value but I was genuinely surprised by the fact that data was a key piece of the value on offer.

In late October, Telstra launched their Prepaid Cap+ offer. The offer includes a combination of basic credit (to the value that you recharge), bonus credit and a data allowance. I have long been a supporter of prepaid mobile plans which offer a data allowance.

The range of plans start at $30 and increase to $100:

- $30 Cap - $30 call credit + $170 bonus credit + 50MB data

- $40 Cap - $40 call credit + $260 bonus credit + 150MB data

- $60 Cap - $60 call credit + $440 bonus credit + 300MB data

- $100 Cap - $100 call credit + $900 bonus credit + 500MB data

Bonus credit/data is for personal use only and excludes calls/SMS to satellite numbers, premium numbers (eg. 1900 numbers), operator assisted and info calls (eg. most calls to 1200 numbers), content charges (inc 3rd party charges), MessageBank, diverted calls and use while overseas.

 Telstra Prepaid Cap+ 2016

Credits last for only 30 days, which is standard for cap style plans. Call rates are 89c per min with a flagfall of 39c and text rates are 29c. So a 3 minute call will set you back $3.06. On the $30 Cap with $200 credit this comes to 65 calls. On the top plan with $1000 credit it equates to 326 calls per month. Telstra's superior reception across rural Australia and the inclusion of data in each cap, should make these plans a popular choice.

Following on from the launch of the Prepaid Cap+ plans, Telstra has now Prepaid Weekend+ Plan. The new prepaid offer gives you two recharge options $50 or $60. In addition to the credit that you can use during the week you also get 100MB of data + FREE weekend talk and text. So you get the $50 or $60 credit for during the week and during the weekend you can make unlimited calls and text to anyone in Australia. Great if you mainly use your phone during the wild weekend. It sounds a little like the first Optus contract I signed up to 15 years ago, free weekend calls.

 Telstra Prepaid Cap+ 2016

Are these new plans enough? At a minimum they now give customers a few more options and the unlimited weekend offer gives those who mainly use their phones over the weekend a great alternative to the many other offers in the market place.

In the longer term they need to continue to look at unique ways to differentiate their product offering and certainly data is one way of doing this. Combined with their superior reception, a great data plan could be a big winner with the growing popularity of smart phones.

A Guide to Choosing an External Antenna on Telstra's Next G Network 2016

A Guide to Choosing an External Antenna on Telstra's Next G Network

Telstra's Next G network covers over 98% of the Australia population. It is a high-speed network that is currently capable of speeds of up to 21MB/s. This means that we can enjoy video calling, email, Whereis maps, News, Weather, Foxtel by mobile, data services such as high-speed internet as well as superior coverage. Unlike other 3G networks where you can get Next G reception you will have access to all Next G services such as email and all the free to browse sections on your Next G mobile phone.

 

A Guide to Choosing an External Antenna on Telstra's Next G Network 2016

BigPond wireless modems, Telstra Mobile Broadband modems and Next G handsets all operate on the Next G 850MHz network. The 850 MHz spectrum provides superior in building coverage .

External antennas provide significant additional coverage for Next G mobile phones. This is important if you are using your mobile phone, BigPond wireless modem or Telstra Mobile Broadband modem in rural and remote areas or along major highways.

Most antennas have a standard fitting termination either SME or FME and different mobile phones and wireless internet cards have different antenna connections. A patch lead is required to connect the mobile phone to the antennas standard fitting.

The range of Next G antennas help to maximise signal strength regardless of whether you are in your vehicle, boat or home. Our Next G antenna range incorporates different size, gain and different types of antennas, from temporary portable antenna solutions to permanent bullbar, roof mount and through windscreen options.

A Guide to Choosing an External Antenna on Telstra's Next G Network 2016

Generally an antenna's size is proportional to its gain and is measured in decibels, dB. The higher the gain of the antenna, the greater the signal range will be. Different gains are required for different situations as noted below:

Low gain - Metropolitan city and major regional areas (0 - 3 dB) These antennas are used to increase signal strength in good coverage areas and are portable and transmit equally in all directions. These antennas also work well in hilly areas.

Medium gain - Regional use (3 - 5 dB) Use these antennas to increase in building reception and in areas on the fringe of network coverage. These antennas transmit are omni directional i.e. they transmit equally in all directions.

High gain - Rural and Remote areas (6.5 - 7.5 dB). Used in low signal areas for home and vehicle applications. The size of our high gain antennas provides omni directional signal strength gain and significant increases in signal range.

Larger ultra high gain antennas, yagis, are also available. These are used to achieve maximum signal strength for wireless broadband modems. They are usually mounted on buildings or high on fixed structures. These antennas transmit in a fixed direction and so must be installed properly so that they are transmitting in the correct direction.

It is recommend that your antenna be installed your a car, boat or house roof as this provides height and stops the roof itself from blocking the signal. Just having an antenna outside of a home, boat or car can result in an increase of around 10 times in signal strength resulting in significantly improved performance.

Telstra has awarded several mobile phone handsets within the Next G range the blue tick. These blue tick mobile phones are recommended for rural and remote use and in areas where there is low signal strength as they provide superior reception in these areas.
