Introduction

The E5785-320a Mobile WiFi Elite 3 White is a compact and portable 4G LTE mobile hotspot promising impressive speeds and battery life. I’ve been using this device for the past few weeks in various settings, from crowded coffee shops to remote hiking trails, to put its claims to the test. This review will detail my experiences, highlighting both the strengths and weaknesses of this device.

Features

The E5785-320a boasts a number of key features designed for convenient and reliable connectivity. The 3000mAh battery easily lasted through a full workday on a single charge, often exceeding the advertised 12 hours. The dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz) provides flexibility and better performance in crowded environments, while the ability to support up to 32 simultaneous users is quite impressive. The sleek white design is also pleasing to the eye and feels robust enough to withstand daily use.

Performance

In terms of performance, the E5785-320a largely delivered on its promises. Download speeds consistently reached close to the advertised 300Mbps in areas with strong 4G+ signal. Even in locations with weaker signals, the device maintained a stable connection, albeit with slightly slower speeds. The simultaneous connection of multiple devices didn’t significantly impact performance, even when streaming videos and making video calls concurrently. The 5GHz band proved particularly helpful in minimizing interference from other Wi-Fi networks. However, there were occasional instances of brief disconnections, which were frustrating, though infrequent.

The device’s interface is intuitive and easy to navigate, even for users unfamiliar with mobile hotspots. Setting up the device and connecting multiple devices is straightforward, which is a significant advantage. I found the compact size particularly beneficial for travel, easily slipping into my backpack or bag.

Pros & Cons

• Pros: Long battery life, fast download speeds, supports many users, easy setup, compact and portable, dual-band Wi-Fi.
• Cons: Occasional brief disconnections, slightly expensive compared to some competitors.

Final Verdict

Overall, the E5785-320a Mobile WiFi Elite 3 White is a solid performer. Its long battery life, fast speeds, and ability to handle numerous simultaneous connections make it an excellent option for both travel and everyday use. While the occasional disconnections are a minor drawback, they didn’t significantly detract from the overall positive experience. If you’re looking for a reliable and convenient mobile hotspot, the E5785-320a is definitely worth considering. I would happily recommend it.
