Tattoo 4G SuperStick Review (Huawei E335)

...and how to use it as an improvised MiFi!

After the media launch of these sticks, I immediately bought a Tattoo 4G SuperStick at the nearest Globe center just a level up near the Ayala Museum in Greenbelt. They released new broadband sticks under the prepaid selection -- one 3G and two 4G sticks. The 2 other sticks seemed normal to me but the 4G SuperStick got my attention and since I love these connectivity sticks, I bought one on the spot. I have several of them at home but what sets this apart from the others are the WiFi capability and the fact that it can get 4G signals.

The Tattoo 4G SuperStick is the Huawei E355. Here are the specs:

I even tested the internet speeds using my Globe Tattoo SuperStick and speed test showed that the boost reached 5mbps! Average from multiple tests was around 1 to 1.5mbps. Not bad considering this said location used to have no to low signal at all!

This was the place which has no Globe signal before
