Comparison of 3G mobile WiFi and MiFi devices
Mobile WiFi devices are becoming more popular with nearly all the main UK network operators offering an option.
The only network of note not to supply a mobile WiFi device is O2. Who seem to be pushing WiFi hotspots supplied by The Cloud and BT OpenZone.
For those that might be wondering what the difference is between a MiFi and Mobile WiFi, the answer is nothing. The term ‘MiFi’ is just a trademark name (owned by Novatel) for Mobile WiFi.
Which Mobile WiFi device is the best?
We are regularly asked this question and to be honest, the current offerings are all very similar in specification and no one device is that much better than any of the others.
Below are the unique features that distinguish each device from the other.
Vodafone R201
T-Mobile Wireless Pointer (aka Huawei E583c)
- Has a connection (CRC9) for an external antenna, useful for poor signal locations
Orange 3352
- Has GPS & assisted GPS, good for those that use location based apps
- Advanced options that business users may find useful
Three E585
- The smallest and most portable device
Unless you specifically require one of the unique features listed above, it is better to buy a mobile Wi-Fi device based on price, the network signal coverage and the data package (i.e. contract or Pay As You Go)
