How long 10 GB lasts
- Light use (0.4 GB per day, saved maps and messaging): about 20 days.
- Normal use (1 GB per day): about 8 days.
- Heavy use (3 GB per day, video and hotspot): about 2 days.
These are planning figures with a 20 percent buffer, the same ones the estimator on the home page uses. Real use depends on video quality, uploads and background apps.

Who it suits
Ten gigabytes gives room for some video and a hotspot now and then, but a heavy day can still use 3 GB.
These plans last from 7 to 30 days. The validity and the data run out independently, so whichever ends first ends the plan.
Questions before you go
Is 10 GB enough for a trip to China?
It depends on the days and on how you use your phone. At normal use it covers about 8 days; at heavy use, about 2.
What happens when the data runs out?
Fixed plans stop until you top up or buy another. Check the provider’s top-up rules and keep an offline copy of your hotel address.
