Circles VoLTE able to work on HK set Galaxy Note? Just checking.
Samsung Galaxy Note 1 does not have VoLTE support at all.

Also, are we able to receive credit card OTPs overseas? Just ported over to Circles since its cheaper than my current M1 plan.
Circles Life $18+ plans all support Pay-Per-Use Roaming.
Circles Life $10 or lower plans do not have PPUR.

My m1 CIS ended, waited for good CIS offer, saw that 50gb unlimited in/out calls +usual FOC Caller ID returned :LOL:, did the switch right away...

So far, tested speed in Seng Kang / Tamp / IMM / TPY / AMK / Yishun, speed is decent with 4 bars on average, and no pauses in YouTube and Netflix. ;)

What is the actual download/upload speed you guys are getting? Like 1Mbps, 10Mbps or 100Mbps? Don't mind please perform a speedtest and let me know, thanks.

I recently switched from CMLink and Grid to Circles eSIM. Been about a week+ now. Speeds aren't too bad, though they're nowhere near as fast as what I get on Singtel.

Just did a speed test - 88Mbps down, 24Mbps up. On Singtel, I usually get 230Mbps down and 50Mbps up.

Seems your location is favorable to M1 network. Where I am, getting 2-5Mbps down and 2-3Mbps up. At same location same phone but on Singtel network I am getting 150 down and 45 up.

Once again, I believed network selection is dependent on the locations one frequently visit.....

Incumbents is trying to lure people back by giving 5G VAS only to own customers, at least for the foreseeable future. So even if CL/MR/GeeNet/Changi gets 5G, it’s likely to be NSA at most and capped for now.

Basically, don’t waste time betting whether MVNOs are getting 5G. If you want 5G, go for incumbents first. If MVNOs get 5G, then jump out whenever contract ends (if any).

Yeah, went out a little over the weekend and realised how bad it is in some areas with under 10Mbps speeds. Ugh. I really like that CL has VoLTE and the rest of the ST MVNOs don't have it but the speeds are sort of killing it for me.

M1 on average is slower than StarHub (using MR and GIGA).

Some location and device can see M1 slower by half. Only once awhile StarHub lose out to M1.

Only thing good about M1 is VoLTE for their MVMOs vendor.
