How Save on your mobile data usage
- Streaming video and videoconferencing. The biggest offender. One minute of YouTube-quality video eats up 2 megabytes. If you're on a plan that gives you 200 megabytes per month, you can't even watch Lady Gaga's "Telephone" video once per day. If you're on a 2 gigabyte plan you can, but don't make your iPhone a replacement for a TV. In either case, it's fine to indulge in YouTube and Netflix if you're on Wi-Fi.
- Streaming audio. The second biggest offender, and potentially more serious. While video is something we need to see to enjoy, Internet radio is more of an accompaniment to other activities, such as jogging or doing dishes. That means some people like to keep it on for hours. Audio consumes about a quarter of the data that video does, but 10 minutes a day will break the bank if you're on a 200 megabyte plan. One hour a day of Pandora consumes nearly a gigabyte, which you can afford if you're on a 2-gigabyte plan and don't use other data-hogging apps.
- Photos. If you're a real shutterbug, photos can consume significant amounts of data. Sending and viewing photos both count toward your monthly limit. Posting 10 photos per day eats up most of a 200 megabyte plan. If you're on a 2-gigabyte plan, you probably don't have to worry about photos.
- Maps. Navigation apps consume lots of data when they retrieve map images, up to a megabyte a minute. You're also likely to use them for long periods of time when you're away from Wi-Fi, such as when you're driving. Watch out for these.
- Web surfing. Web pages vary widely in size, so this will depend quite a bit on whether you like to visit graphically rich sites (lots of data) or spare, text-oriented ones (less data). But roughly speaking, ten pages a day will eat up about half of a 200 megabyte plan. Again, those on 2-gigabyte plans don't need to worry much about surfing.
- Facebook. Roughly equivalent to Web surfing. Status updates won't take much data, but sending photos and viewing friends' pictures will.
- Email. Most emails are tiny, in terms of data. Basically, you can send and receive email all you want, as long as they don't have attachments such as photos.
- Twitter. Like email, these short messages don't use much data, but if you follow a lot of people and click on links, usage adds up.
- Weather apps. Small, focused apps that report simple but useful things, such as the weather forecast, save data (and time) compared with looking up the same information on a Web page.

Top Tips for buying used mobiles online
Avoid purchasing online by paying online
It’s always advisable not to purchase mobiles that are already used by making an online payment. In case there are shipping issues or if the handset is not as per your expectations, there is nothing that you could do as a buyer if the payment is already done.
Purchase the mobile only after discussion with the seller
Its always wise to have a discussion with the real seller of the mobile to understand more on the status of the piece before making the purchase. This way you could also get some discounts on the purchase you are about to make.
Approach sellers with a completed listing
It’s better to approach sellers who have a complete listing of the mobile with all the details and a real image. This will make your decision easier if you want to purchase the mobile or not.
Sort the listing by city and purchase locally
It’s always a good idea to use websites search your preferred mobiles locally based on city. Once you have discussed with the seller, you could directly pick up the mobile and make the payment.
Wishing you all the best on your next purchase. Let me know your comments.
