High-speed cellular network carriers in India, such as Airtel, Vodafone and Idea, along with the leading phone brands in the country like Samsung, Nokia, Blackberry and others are offering competitive prices for long term unlimited talktime, text and data on contract deals. These deals also provide with a wide range of additional features and services such as free ring tones, free Bluetooth headsets, free Google maps, free Skype video and other similar benefits, along with faster download and upload speeds. With these services, gamers can expect to get enhanced gaming experiences from their dedicated consoles and accessories
While choosing a wireless gaming console for an iPhone or for a new phone, the first thing one needs to take into consideration is the type of internet connectivity that the user has at his/her disposal. Those with a slow 3G download speed at home may need to invest in a gaming console with a high-speed cellular network. This will allow the person to join in gaming even when on a limited data or dial-up connection at home. Further, users with a broadband internet connection at work may need to consider a gaming console with a dedicated modem, if their personal connection is slow. If on the other hand they are connected to a fast cellular network, a dedicated modem is not necessary.
