Update on Smart iPad plans:
The iPad Air and the iPad mini with Retina Display are available on Smart Bro’s iPad Plan 1499 (16GB) and iPad Plan 1699 (32GB), which both come with 65 hours of LTE Internet surfing every month and an Anti-Bill Shock Guarantee that ensures subscribers wouldn’t have to worry about excessive data charges on their monthly bills.
Subscribers only need to pay a one-time fee of P1,000 for the iPad mini with Retina display or P5,000 for the iPad Air upon application to get their hands on these newest tablets of the season.
