With a smartphone, you can check email, browse the web, or locate directions from anywhere!
Smartphones are able to access the Internet using the same cell phone towers that allow you to make phone calls and send text messages.
If you have a smartphone, you likely pay for data. Data plans generally have limits. If you go over your data limit, your access to the Internet may be slowed or cut off or you may be charged extra. Data plan totals are typically listed in gigabytes (GB).
Tablets typically rely on a Wi-Fi connection. Many coffee shops, restaurants, libraries, campuses, and downtown areas offer free Wi-Fi. Using Wi-Fi at home or at these businesses and other locations helps you save money and avoid going over your data plan.
