Google Unveils Its Much Awaited Project Fi Wireless Service
The service actually works by combining mobile network and WiFi into a single network.
After waiting for quite a long time, Google has finally unveiled its wireless service known as the Project Fi.
Being currently invite-only, and available exclusively to users of Nexus 6 smartphone, the wireless service is looking forward to restructure the wireless industry and consumer options, stringing together existing networks and WiFi connectivity into one service.
To add in more details, we can tell that Google Fi combines Sprint, T-Mobile and WiFi into a single network.
Google's official blog post claims that the idea actually works like; users are subscribed to both these networks and keeps jumping between them according to the situation.
This service is said to be available not just in USA, but in over 120 countries, however, at 3G speeds.
One more important attractive feature that comes with Google Fi is the pay-for-what-you-use feature. This means that if the user uses less data, the amount worth of unused data shall be credited back.
However, for now, the only point which turns off the interest in getting into the service is that, it currently supports only Motorola's Nexus 6 which not everyone has yet.
Finally, coming to the price point of the Project Fi, Google charges $20 as fixed amount every month for the basics and the data charges are extra with around $10 per 1 GB of data.
