price??
Sounds great but how will they measure rpm and real time fuel levels? For that they will have to install physical devices in the vehicle.
OBD2 is basically physicall device to daignose issues and monitir car and available on Aliexpress from 5 to 15 dollars from different vendors
Great then. If its efficient, then this Zong initiative will sell like hot cake.
yes only if the price is reasonable , obd2 devices are not expensive
I believe this is a physcal device in the OBD port under the steering wheel.
And how it measures engine rpm, remaining fuel in tank? You gotta have sensors installed in those places which feed this device. Seems bit complex for a telecom operator to manage. Just MHO
Rubbish offer from zong, device cost is 12500 while its available in 1250 from Ali express and 1050 monthly charges for 10 gb
only some insane will subscribe to this offer
dear the devices your are talking about are not 4G enabled and you just use them with bluetooth .. what Zong offering is all over the air via internet plus you can get 10GB of data on the device for use. I agree price is little higher but you have to consider the software development cost and maintinnace cost at companies end as it will keep 6 months of data of your car as backup.
they all comes with wifi enabled then who cares for 4g and moreover zong is charging 1050 per month
dear if you dont want to agree then its ur own else they have developed their own software on android and iOS. All the data is available on the app via internet not Wifi or Bluetooth. Still do me a favour search on aliexpress about OBD 4G Devices cost you will get your answer.
yes its a physical device , inserted in the standard OBD port below the steering near fuse box . It has ZONG 4G SIM in it.its the same port where honda Toyota mechanics connect their lap tops for diagnostics… It comes with 1 year free warranty which is not available on ali express… also creates 4G wifi hotspot for the car… free demo is available in ZONG CSC in islamabad blue area.
in 12500 20 devices can be purchased with same specs and features then who requires warranty
4G OBD device is approximately costs 100 Dollars (On Ali express) , i believe you are confusing it with some other device.

check price 4g enbaled costs around 22 dollars
the lowest price i have been able to find on Internet (reliable channel : Ali express) is 90 dollars … i think the link you are sharing is not very reliable
Dear
Ali express is retail website while AliBaba is parent whole sale website
its not about devices , normally china makes most of them but how efficient work these devices in Pakistan region is main concern or how accurate or user friendly ..
Telenor is already offering similar service Telenor Automate for a long time now.
But I believe that Telenor’s 4G coverage is not as much as Zong
lets just focus on what is at hand and promote it for the sake of IoT. Zong has taken the initiative and risking itself too with developing the application and looking for the positive feedback. I see a nice potential for this device as this might be really beneficial to the people who have given their cars to careem uber bykea, and have hired drivers to drive their vehicles, looking how their vehicle is being handled by the driver.
