HTC HD7 vs HTC Desire HD Comparison Chart

HTC HD7 is a great phone from HTC which is also known as HTC HD3, HTC Gold, HTC Diamond3 and HTC Mondrian. It is first Windows 7 smartphone from HTC. HTC has also released 2 more Windows 7 based smartphones along HD7. They are HTC 7 Mozart and HTC 7 Trophy. I think the purpose of releasing those smartphones is to provide smartphone user slightly low price smartphones with Windows 7 operating system with little less specification and size.

We may discuss other smartphones in detail later on. Currently my focus is Desire HD and HD7. The main difference between these two is operating system. HD7 is Windows based while Desire HD is android based that is supported by Google itself.

STC, Mobily and Zain are now offering 4 Halalas per MB

It has been started by Zain first of all. Zain has introduced a new data sim last week with free 300 MB internet. The price for this data sim was 30 SR. After utilizing your free data bundle of 300 megabyte every additional MB of internet will cost you 6 halala i.e 0.06 SR. Next to that Mobily has introduced even a better package. That was 300 MB in 30 SR sim and every additional MB costs 5 halala.

Next to that, Zain decreased the cost of 1 MB to just 4 halala and they decreased the price of Sim card to 20 SR. Again mobily tried to dominate this offer and they offered 500 MB of internet in Just 30 SR plus additional MB costs same 4 halala.

STC stayed away from this fight and they didn't offer anything. When 1 week passed and both mobily and Zain kept quite on more offers, STC has introduced a little different package. They offered 400 MB of internet data in just 25 SR plus additional MB costs same 4 halala like mobily and Zain.

Now all three of mobile operators in Saudi Arabia are providing the cheapest ever MB in Saudi Arabia. Once you buy the sim card in 20, 25 or 30 SR you could have internet at 4 halala per MB cost. I draw a comparison of intial free MBs and I found mobily is the cheapest among all three. As per my experience mobily's internet services are a lot better than all others.

Provider	Package Name	Initial Balance	Price	MB per 1SR
STC	QUICKnet Light	400 MB	25 SR	16
mobily	Connect 500	500 MB	30 SR	16.67
Zain	Delight	300 MB	20 SR	15

These Sim cards are for data purposes. These sim cards cannot be used in your mobile for making or receiving calls.
