Eight Telecom discussion thread

[OutBreak]

Someone in FB asked them about 5G for the lower plans, and they replied "our 5G plans start from $14.80 and above." Or something to the effect.

I. Want. To. See. How. Long. Before. Patterns. Change. Again.

If they don't feel the pressure from M1 Maxx.

How’s the Deco x50-5g? Does it provides consistent speed?

So far so good. Experience way better than when I was on viewqwest fibre broadband.

It's kinda expensive when I just wanna try it out.

Think you can try on your phone first and see the speed. If can attain 800-1000kbps should be fine.

M1 and StarHub have a joint venture that operates a combined 5G network. Mobile tower locations and spectrum are shared. The respective carriers may manage subscriber priorities differently, and they still maintain separate 4G networks (which you mentioned). There can still be some differences, even on 5G.

SIMBA also operates a 5G network in Singapore.

I think Simba only have the 5G NSA whereas Singtel Starhub M1 using 5G SA.
After Simba merge with M1 in future I think Simba become better

Is M1 and Simba sleeping together already?

Not totally accurate
Cos all of the traffic light seem to run both SA + NSA as well.

OTOH, got any good promo for topup bo.
My balances running out in FEB26

After successful merger, M1 and SIMBA will share their 4G network but for 5G network, it will be independent for each other.

Probably due to shared 5G w StarHub. In that case the merger might be of limited value then.

For internation travel.
$8 provide 2G
$18 provide 18G

With $10 more, you get extra 16G international roaming.

IMO, not bad.

Hope the public opinions will stop the merger. If the authority needs public opinions, it means they are not sure whether it is good to approve the merger...

Donation? Aiyo why say like dat lar

I use Eight mainly when across the bridge. 5G or not doesn’t matter. And I definitely won’t pay $6.80 more just for 5G.

across bridge i get 5g
