A

Travel WiFi is a global company with a simple mission: to keep you connected to the Internet while traveling. They do this by providing WiFi hotspot devices (for rent or purchase) that can be used on 6 different continents.

About the WiFi devices

The Pocket Travel WiFi devices are the size and shape of a small smartphone. The standard Hotspot Rental and the Sapphire 2 (for purchase) share a similar design with one mini-USB charging port. However, it’s important to note that these devices are not waterproof. When fully charged, they should last around 12 hours with fairly regular WiFi use. Additionally, the Sapphire 2 model features indicator lights displaying signal strength and battery life.

Renting VS Buying the travel WiFi device

The cost of purchasing a travel WiFi device is $89 — $109, and then you pay on top of that for data packages ($29.9 for 20 GB in a month). Most frequent travelers buy their own device for convenience.

The rental price is based on the total number of days that you’ll keep the device and how much data you want to use each day. Daily rents range from $6.9 for 1 GB, $12.9 for 2 GB to $16.9 for 3 GB. Week pass ($45.9) with no data limit is also a good choice for short-term travelers.

1. What is an advantage of the travel WiFi device?

A. It is resistant to water. B. It is quick to charge.

C. It is convenient to carry. D. It is excellent in signal.

2. For a 7-day UK trip, what’s the minimum rent for a WiFi device?
