Glo prides itself on being "the Grandmasters of data" and claims that its data plans are by far the least expensive in Nigeria.
Whether you use a lot or a little data, Glo's collection of data bundles has the right option for you. Glo also provides the ideal plans for you, regardless of whether you use a PC modem, a smartphone, or any other Internet-capable device.
Make sure that the 3G signal for Glo Nigeria is extremely strong in your location before choosing an appropriate Glo data plan for your Android phone or tablet. I highly advise you to choose data plans from MTN, Airtel, or 9mobile if you're in an area where Glo's 3G service is unreliable.
