I remember I had giga 5G, and it did 300Mbps. Perhaps both eight and Simba are throttling on the backend, which is why they can offer "more" for less. Expand Personally 100mbps I think still acceptable if it is really cheap, (a few years back I was getting about 150mbps on an older phone on 4g, and wifi 5) so have to give and take a little, but single digit really not for me lor, I scare I end up smash the phone and need a new one. But I am curious, how do you live with 8 mbps down load? Serious question. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can always upgrade the network card though, bought mine for $70++ TP Link 10gbps desktop network card. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopites Supersonic May 1 Share May 1 Sms. Be entertained while queueing up to poll this General Election 2025. Enjoy FREE SG mobile data all day on 3rd May 2025 (00:00-23:59) on us!

Jamesc Hypersonic May 1 Share May 1 I switched to Starhub when it first started because SH was the first to give free incoming to take market share from ST and M1. I then switch to Redone $8 plan when Redone first started because they gave full data to MY. Today I just switched to 8 because they gave 488GB for MY and TH. And 8GB roaming, 1GB more than Lion King. So I am back to SH again today but never really left because Redone is also on SH network. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic May 1 Share May 1 Before free incoming salesmen in my company can have $700 phone bills. So when SH came along I told them to switch as I did and their bills dopped to $100+ Free incoming was SH master stroke to take share from M1 and ST and forced them to follow! Now Lion King is doing a great job taking market share because of their 7GB roaming and thanks to SB, 8 has to give 8GB! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic May 1 Share May 1 For Home BB I was on SH $30 500MB plan and thanks to @Kb27 I switched to SB $5 data only plan. MIL complain very slow and cannot post nonsense on MCF so I told here to just live with it! Save $25 a month and its $300 a year savings! I just topped up $40 and SB gave another $40 so I am good for the next 16 months! Thank you Lion King. The King of Data only plans. Long may your reign continue. Please don't stop before the next 16 months is up! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidklt Supercharged Tuesday at 02:59 AM Share Tuesday at 02:59 AM (edited) Any feedback on 8 Mobile? I travel quite a fair bit to China and I find the voice roaming and the 10GB international data roaming plans generous. They are on Starhub 4G network but what I heard reception is better than Simba's. Edited Tuesday at 03:02 AM by Davidklt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M1 and Simba I'll avoid as main line. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
