Re: Iphone 12 India data usage
I traveled to India for 4 weeks in September and October 2022, after reading this forum. I am back in the USA and here is my review. T Mobile free data on cellular networks of Indiaworked almost everywhere during my 4000+ kilometer zig-zag drive journey in India, as I visited various historic sites and infrastructure projects to review in the field. Relying on T Mobile,I was able to get freeMessages,WhatsApp, Email etcin Delhi including Delhi airport when I arrived, and thereafter in numerous small towns of Chhattisgarh, towns and cities of Madhya Pradesh including Bhopal airport, of Uttar Pradesh, small towns and cities of Odisha including Bhubaneswar airport, and most of West Bengal including Kolkata airport.Only exception were isolated parts of Raipur city and parts of Asansol city (may be one or two tower issues?). No bill surprise afterwards too, now that I have received and paid the monthly bill that covers the period of my travel.Slow speed data is indeed included free by T Mobile in India, and for me,it worked nicely in the states mentioned above when I tried relying exclusively on T Mobile service.For high speed data and apps such as Google Maps and Apple Maps, I used a portable JioFi. When JioFI battery was exhausted, and sometimes just to test, I relied on T Mobile exclusively.I was traveling with the recently released iPhone 14 Pro.I have the Magenta Unlimited plan.These were my phone options→ Settings : Cellular →thenCellular Data : On (Green); Cellular Data Options : Roaming On; Personal Hotspot : Off. T-Mobile Turn On This Line : On (Green); Scrolled down and confirmed that all the desiredData-driven Apps were On (green). Sometimes I had to toggle the Airplane Mode on-off, or switch off then reboot the phone, to help re-login the phone with local cellular towers.1Ver1like0ComentariosRe: No network on International roaming in India
I traveled to India for 4 weeks in September and October 2022, after reading this forum. Given the mixed comments so far, I wondered "will the cellular data withT-Mobile work or not in India, and will there be surprise charges"? I am back and here is my review. Well, it worked almost everywhere during my 4000+ kilometer zig-zag drive journey in India, as I visited various historic sites and infrastructure projects to review in the field.T-Mobile free data servicedriven Messages,WhatsApp etc appsworkedin Delhi including Delhi airport, and numerous small towns of Chhattisgarh, towns and cities of Madhya Pradesh including Bhopal airport, of Uttar Pradesh, small towns and cities of Odisha including Bhubaneswar airport, and most of West Bengal including Kolkata airport.Only exception were isolated parts of Raipur city and parts of Asansol city (may be one or two tower issues?).

I was in India in Sept and Oct 2022 with an iPhone 14 Pro. The T Mobile Unlimited cellular dataworked nicely almost everywhere. IncludingDelhi and many other Indian airports, New Delhi, UP, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Odisha andWest Bengal. Worked in rural, small towns and cities as I travelled 1000s of km across India. It was slower than data plan in the USA, but Iwas able to get text/SMS messages, WhatsApp, Email, etc. Occasionally, I had to switch off the iPhone and reboot it up to help it to re-login to the best signal cell tower. No surprise shock bill charges by T Mobile after the trip. Yes, I have received the bill that covers the travel period in India, after returning back to the USA. I have the Magenta Unlimited plan. I do not work for T Mobile, nor does anyone in my family or friends. These were my phone options→ Settings : Cellular →thenCellular Data : On (Green); Cellular Data Options : Roaming On; Personal Hotspot : Off. T-Mobile Turn On This Line : On (Green); Scrolled down and confirmed that all the desiredData-driven Apps were On (green).17Visto1like0Comentarios
