Mobile Data Plans – Keeping You Connected
It’s an information-driven world these days. Thanks to the sheer power of Australia’s advanced and super-fast 4G mobile networks, it’s actually possible to connect to broadband internet when you’re out and about at speeds that rival even the fastest NBN service. Whether you’re carrying a compact tablet or a powerful large-screen tablet with you for work or travel, you’re going to need some way of getting connected to that Australia-wide network. Mostly so that you can keep in touch or keep working no matter where the day takes you. Using your smartphone as a hotspot works for emergencies. But if you want the freedom of getting online when you want and need to, that device is going to need its own SIM.
With that in mind, many of Australia’s mobile providers have started offering mobile data plans. They come in the form of a special SIM that you can use in your tablet (and your laptop, with an adapter) to gain access to speedy 4G broadband out in the world. And since you’ll need a data allowance big enough that you don’t have to constantly watch your usage – even unlimited mobile data with some providers – we’ve gathered all the essential info to help you compare data plans to find the best one for your needs.
November 2018 Special Data Deals and Promotions
For starters, there’s Yomojo with their newly improved plans starting with the Kid’s Plan at $9.90/month loaded with 1GB of data, unlimited texts, and 200 minutes of calls. The unlimited 2GB plan is now at $15.90/month from the previous $19.90 and the 4GB plan has been increased to 8GB for the same monthly plan fee.
Do you want more time with your data? Try OVO 365 — a data plan that lasts year-long! Vaya also offers its largest 70GB plan at only $79/month powered by the speedy Optus 4G Plus Network. Even better, these plans have no lock-in contract so you can cancel or change your plan anytime.
OVO Mobile has also got the largest data plan offerings – 150GB at $89.95 per month and the recently launched 250GB at $119.95 per month. You’ll never have to worry about exceeding your data plan ever again. Telstra’s latest mobile data plans also include bigger data allowances plus other exciting bonuses. Check out Moose’s affordable data-only plans, too!
SIM-Only Plans
If you already own your smartphone and just want to find the best value deal to get you connected for calls and data, then a SIM-only plan lets you pick your provider and go. You can choose a contract plan that reduces the overall cost, or enjoy the freedom of paying month-to-month and being able to swap to a different provider if you find a better deal. You won’t easily find mobile plans with unlimited data, but in many cases the allowances are so large it doesn’t matter. Regardless of which you choose, you always get to keep your mobile number.
Phone Plans
If you need a new smartphone – or just want to keep up with the latest advances in mobile phone technology – you can grab one without having to pay for it outright by taking up a mobile phone plan on a contract. Get the cost of your new phone rolled in with your calls and data allowance. You can even swap out your phone every year for the latest model for a modest charge. If you want to be the first with the latest, a phone plan is the right fit for you.
Prepaid Plans
With prepaid, you always know what you’re spending – you set the budget and top up your allowance whenever you need to. You can bring your own phone and just get a prepaid SIM card to take advantage of some great deals, or you can buy and own a phone and then top up its call and data allowance as you go. Prepaid is the contract-free, flexible way of getting connected with the freedom to change when you want.
Data Plans
If you’ve got a 3G or 4G capable tablet or laptop you’ll want to be able to get it online when you’re out and about without the hassle of plugging in your phone or setting up a mobile hotspot. Having data access on the device itself not only frees you from having to search out Wi-Fi hotspots, but also keeps your personal information secure. Data-only plans give you a SIM especially for your tablet or laptop. That way, you can always be online wherever you are.

Data Plan FAQs
I have a big data allowance on my mobile plan – is it wasted if I get a data plan for my tablet?
In the past, if you got a SIM card on a data plan for your connected device, you were locked into using that data exclusively on that same device. Happily, that’s all changed now – if your phone and data SIMs are through the same provider, in many cases you can set both up for shared (or “pooled”) data. This combines the data allowances from both your phone and data plans and lets you draw on that total when you use either device.
What if I just want to get my iPad online on my phone plan?
With some providers, you can do exactly that – pick a mobile phone plan that suits both your call and your data needs, and then buy a second SIM for your tablet that is linked directly to your phone account. In some cases, that second SIM can come with a data allowance of its own, but when linked, you draw from a shared data pool on each device, allowing you to make the most of the data you pay for every month regardless of what your usage on each device is.
Are there any unlimited data mobile plans for my tablet?
Unlimited data allowances are unfortunately still hard to come by regardless of whether you’re on a mobile phone plan or on a data only SIM. The cost of providing mobile data is far greater for providers than it is for a fixed connection at home or work, and the allowances are there to make sure the network as a whole remains fast and responsive for everyone. That said, there are some extremely generous data only SIM plans that provide enough allowance per month. It would be very difficult to exceed the limit with normal day to day usage. Think about what you use mobile data for and pick a plan with an allowance large enough to be comfortable.
Disclaimers
The Telstra Mobile Network: The Telstra Mobile Network offers 4GX in all capital CBDs and selected suburban and regional areas and is progressively rolling out to more places. In other coverage areas around Australia, you’ll automatically switch to our fastest available 4G or 3G. Check coverage at telstra.com/coverage.
4GX: Typical download speeds in 4GX areas are 5-300Mbps with category 16 devices, 5-200Mbps with category 11 devices, 5-150Mbps with category 9 devices, 2-100Mbps with category 6 devices, and 2-75Mbps with category 4 devices. Outside 4GX areas, you will switch to our fastest available 4G or 3G speeds. Speeds vary for reasons like location, distance from base stations, terrain, user numbers, hardware/software configuration, download source and upload destination.
Device Payment Contract: If you cancel early your remaining device payments and total min cost may be higher.
Talk, Text and Data: Excludes calls/SMS/MMS to premium numbers, 12xx, satellite numbers, content charges and use overseas. If you do not have a Peace of Mind data enabled on your plan and you go over your Monthly Data Allowance, we automatically add data a 1GB block for $10 for use that month.
Peace of Mind Data: After your included data allowance, data speeds capped at 1.5Mbps (which is not suitable for HD video or high speed applications, and means that some webpages, video/social media content and some large files may take longer to load) and slowed further during busy periods.
