Kiddies i still understand la.. Maybe they doing things like remote. Like on their portable console, they remote to those cloud gaming platforms. Basically the game is hosted on the cloud. What they do is using basically like a wireless mouse/keyboard connect to their system on the cloud to play game.

These kind of use case makes sense for 5g la.

Boomer relics wanting 5g cause they got a 5g phone.. All they do is blast their propaganda vids in public areas, 5g for what sia

Anyone realise that the data connection will suddenly cut off by itself for a while? The 4G logo will suddenly disappear n will reappear after a while

mobile Internet data usable or not is highly dependent on location.

during morning/evening peak hour when I travel along nel, the internet is very usable.

it is also very usable at my workplace in the marina bay area and all the way to marina barrage.

however it is not usable at home. when I am at the door, can receive 2 bar. but when I moved in a few steps to the living room, it drop to 0 or 1 bar. Mobile internet totally not usable. Need to turn on home broadband wifi.

so you need to sign up and test for yourself does it suit your needs or lifestyle. last but not least, with the shutdown of 3g, hopefully it will not have too much impact . will need to monitor the situation after 31st July.
