5G networks offer low latency, high bandwidth, and impressive speeds — features that you need to achieve a smooth and enjoyable gaming experience. To access the next-gen frequency, you will need to choose a reliable network provider in the Philippines that offers load promos best suited for your mobile gaming needs.
But that’s where it gets tricky, as there are a myriad of mobile game promos available. This guide by DITO Telecommunity explores the various data plans suitable for mobile gaming and provides you with tips for choosing the best one.
Playing mobile games requires you to purchase load promos that can accommodate the high-bandwidth demand of this online activity. The following are usual telecom offerings that are suitable for this type of use case:
Promos that provide exclusive access to select applications let you use the data solely for that app. The exclusivity means you cannot inadvertently use that data allocation for other online tasks, maximizing your plan.
When we talk about mobile data for online games, unlimited promos are the most promising. This is specifically true if you’re someone who plays mobile games for hours daily. With a no-cap data promo, you have fewer worries about your data running out at the most crucial battles or stages!
Postpaid data plans are similar to unlimited data plans, but unlike the latter, you pay for your data usage each billing cycle. The thing with this option, though, is that you pay a fixed fee regardless of how much data you consume in a month. That said, a postpaid plan is highly recommended if you don’t want to reload regularly and prefer to make an automated payment each billing cycle.
Like all other load plans, the best mobile game promos in the Philippines are those that accommodate your gaming needs. Determining which promos really meet your requirements, though, will take some careful consideration. Here are our tips for making your decision-making more efficient:
Before you choose any promo, it will help you to list all the games you play first. Itemize and rank them, too, from most frequently opened to least opened, and align your choices based on the game that uses up the most data. That means if you’re a Mobile Legends: Bang Bang fan, you should seek promos that cater to multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) types.
Connected to the first step, you will need to compare existing mobile game promos to the ones you’re playing. If you play Mobile Legends, choose 5G-ready prepaid plans with generous or unlimited data promos so you can play to your heart’s content at reduced latency and high bandwidth.
On the other hand, if all you open when you pick up your phone is Candy Crush, a capped data plan for a month will likely be sufficient, as such casual games don’t consume that much data (and some can even be played offline).
Once you’ve found mobile plans that match the games you play, it’s time to test whether those promos live up to their promise. Say you purchased a 9 GB data plan valid for 7 days that promises up to 100 Mbps of speed and bonus in-game perks, you should be able to use exactly that amount of data. Provided, of course, that you’re in a location within the carrier’s network coverage.
Conversely, you may also want to test whether the network carrier itself meets your expectations by trying to play in different locations with a 4G or 5G signal. Determine which locations you usually play your mobile games at (e.g., school grounds, home, conference areas, etc.) and play there while subscribed to the promo you chose. Pay attention to how reliable the connection is.
A paramount consideration is determining if your budget can sustain subscribing to specific data plans. You can’t hope to continue playing with gusto if it’s draining your wallet, so choose a game promo within your means. Also, if you’re not as constantly gaming as competitive gamers, then there’s no harm in choosing more affordable promos with less data allocation. The key is to subscribe to a plan sufficient as such casual games don’t consume that much data (and some can even be played offline).
