3 UK has launched a new premium dongle, the Huawei E367, which provides improved performance and offers up to 40% faster browsing. The USB device supports HSPA+ technology, enabling peak downlink speeds of up to 21 Mbps. The Huawei E367 is available for pre-paid users for GBP69.99 (US$112), or on a rolling one-month contract for a one-off payment of GBP49.99, plus GBP15.99 per month with 5 GB data allowance, or on a 24-month contract, without an upfront charge, with 15GB data cap for GBP18.03 per month.

Offering our fastest mobile broadband yet, Three’s newly designed premium dongle, the Huawei E367, is available in store and on Three.co.uk from next week. The new dongle provides improved performance and offers up to 40% faster browsing.

Three’s mobile network is already voted number one by You Gov (*) and this new dongle will enable customers to get an even better experience. The E367 is the first dongle from Three to feature latest technologies such as HSPA+, and it will offer ever faster performance as Three continues its network improvement programme and rolls out this new technology.

The new dongle design also features a rotating head to ensure best performance and access to Three’s award winning 3G network. The USB connector tucks into the dongle and swivels out when you need to use it. Not only will the USB cap never go missing again, but just like a mini aerial, the dongle can bend to stand vertically, which will help customers access the high speed signal even more efficiently.
David Kerrigan, Three’s head of mobile broadband, said “Huawei has done a great job delivering this superior dongle, in both form and function. Whether browsing the internet, downloading files or streaming video, this dongle delivers an even better internet experience on our 3G network, which is built for mobile internet.”

Key features:

  • Up to 40% faster browsing
  • HSPA+ capable
  • Swivelling design
