Life in 21st Century is tough. This is the real digital era. We have smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, laptops ruling the roost and everyday,new digital technologies make their way in our lives to de-clutter it, simplify it and make it better. The world is a small place and connectivity is at its all time high.
But all of this goes to naught if our internet connection speed does not catch up with the times! And unfortunately, it hasn't. For example-take the singular case of me trying to make one blog post. I write it, then I put in links, pictures or videos and then upload it. The whole process should ideally take me as much time as my brain needs to think and my fingers need to type. BUT I spend at least 5 minutes staring blankly at the screen while the pictures/videos upload merrily. Ok, sometimes I utilize that time to make me a nice cup of coffee, but that does not make the process any less annoying.
Or take a simple work day. I have to meet clients to give them presentations and so I need internet on the go. Being stuck in a traffic jam, I want to utilize that time to update my presentation or browse some worksheet or check my emails or write a speech or maybe even watch a video. The number of times I have cursed at my phone as the connectivity speed is almost nil at busy traffic intersections, are too many to recount.
That is why I am overjoyed at the news of Airtel 4G making its appearance :) Finally, internet at speeds that I deserve, that I need and that I wish for! Superfast connectivity is not going to be a fluffy dream anymore. Just last week, an office colleague of mine was talking about Airtel 4G -about how he got a free 4G SIM home delivered by simply tweeting with the hashtag #GetAirtel4G on twitter! It intrigued me and I asked him if I could see the 4G speed in action for myself. Imagine a mp3 song being downloaded in 4 seconds flat, or a mp4 video in 25 seconds flat! Watching youtube videos is a breeze as is downloading any app now. Watching him perform these activities in seconds, what earlier would take minutes & hours, I am sure it is going to make my life easier too.
I will be stuck in traffic and still be able to make snazzy presentations & share them quickly with my colleagues. I will be on the move and seamlessly connect with my emails, even the ones with heavy attachments, or even update my blog in a heartbeat. Downloading songs, movies or watching them stream will no longer be a pain! Very importantly, I stayed away from mobile banking all this while because of poor connectivity and regularly dropped connections, but no more! I can be a financial whiz kid while on -the -go too :) And for a travel junkie like me, travelling would be a pleasure when I have the whole world of sharing and connectivity at my fingertips-at super speeds :)
Working on the go, Entertainment on my fingertips, with Airtel 4G I am ready for a new chapter in my life. After all, it comes only at the price of 3G!
