In a review of 3's mobile broadband offering, Tech Radar has noted its ease-of-use and high-speed capabilities.

The online resource notes initially that mobile broadband may be viewed as an attractive option to those who find it difficult to get Wi-Fi access while they are on the move.

It may also prove a cheaper option too, Tech Radar explains, with 3's half-price deal for existing mobile phone customers making the service "twice as tantalising".

Furthermore, 3's mobile broadband service is easy to connect to, with just the modem and a Sim card needed to get started, it asserts.

"Once connected, speeds were impressive, even far away from London. In the three major cities we visited during the course of this review, we achieved an HSDPA connection with at least 1.5 Mbps - often getting over 3 Mbps," the resource claims.

At the end of last month, 3 cut the prices of its pay-as-you-go mobile broadband products, which are now available from £49.99.
