Will 500mb of data be enough for me? Or should I get 1gb instead? - i like candies - 03-01-2013 05:55 AM

Hi there! My parents are getting me an iPhone for my upcoming birthday as a mix with my Christmas present (haha, a little late for Christmas? Yeah, I know.) Anyway, it is kinda required that you need data on the iPhone. I don't want my parents to pay a lot for my phone plan, so I was wondering if 500mb of data will be enough for me? I'm thinking that I will be usually connected to my home wifi as I'm home a lot, but when out on the run, I'd be using iMessage (iMessage uses data), ocassionally Facebook, ocasionally Facebook chat, my email, and some games and apps (like Angry Birds and all). Will that be enough for 500mb of data? I won't be watching YouTube videos because I don't think I will need to when I'm out.

Will 500mb of data be enough for me? I know that I can be safe and get 1gb of data instead of 500mb, but I honestly don't want my parents to pay an extra $10 if I won't be using all of the data. Thanks in advance!

Go with the 1gb. You'll find yourself using it when you're out a lot more than you expect. That's how I was anyway. You'll find some video you want to show your friends. You'll be in the car for awhile and get bored. I found myself using it more than I had expected, so that's just my advice.
