Is 500mb a lot of Data for an iphone?

I'm planning on getting an iphone and I have two plan options. One offers me 500 mb's of Data and the other 1Gb. I'm big on social networking so I'd probably be using facebook, twitter and instagram a lot. I will probably check my e-mail every now and again but not often. I was just wondering if 500 mb's would be enough?

So uploading the pictures to either of those sites takes data from your plan. So if you do that a lot, 1 GB is the way to go. Uploading, downloading, streaming (Pandora and the like), all takes data to do, unless you are connected via a Wi-Fi connection. Then it does not take away from data.

  • Is 500mb of data enough for the iPhone 4s? I'm looking at plans that I recently bought for my iPhone 4s and a plan that I like includes 500 mb of data. I know that data is for browsing on the internet, but how much is 500mb of data? Is it more than enough or too less? I'll most likely just be on YouTube, Facebook, email, and Google on my phone. Will it be enough?
