Aircel’s 3G FREE Trial offer includes:
- 250 MB Free data usage
- 50 Minutes Free Video calling
ACTIVATION PROCEDURE: While
the company states one has to send just a single SMS to 121, doing so
resulted in several messages being received (below). Same
was quite confusing as one would need to ignore the 2G setting-related
messages and attend to the 3G messages only. Additionally both the SMS
and call centre informs the “Activation Time” as 2 hours – whereas in
reality the activation happened in under 10 minutes.

Well now that we have done with the settings part of the review, let’s get into the main 3G experience.
BROWSING SPEED: While checking browsing speeds, one needs to keep in mind the following:
*Capacity of Handset used – Nokia C6-01 (supports speeds upto 10.2MBPS)
*Signal Strength of BTS (Tower) logged into
*Simultaneous Users (both Voice& Data) in the BTS (Tower) logged into
*Website being accessed – mobilespeedtest.net
Having
clarified the above, the Aircel speeds clocked were 1478 Kbps, quite
impressive for peak hour traffic (Testing done between 20:46 – 21:12 hrs
on Friday).
