I've so far not been as happy with Maxx as (only the connection, not the price) with Eight 5G. :unsure:

Might find a chance to try out later...

Edit: But oh, if underground has no 5G connection for Eight and it goes to 4G, then that's no friend of mine. :s13:

But then you may not have solution if 5G NSA really shuts down after 31 Dec 2025.

Even Singtel got many places including underground areas only get 5G NSA or 4G LTE now, as 5G SA is still not good enough. When 5G NSA shuts down, then it will be 4G LTE for these places.

I am previously on 5G NSA on zym it is more usable than M1 5G, logo shows 5G with no data or occasionally falls to 4g+ with the same result.

Interesting, quite some comments here seems to say M1 5G is okay since it shares 5G infrastructure with StarHub, even though M1 4G is known to be bad compared to StarHub/Singtel 4G.

By the way, I do not think Singtel 4G is that good now.

I like the current Singtel 5G SA + 5G NSA + 4G combinations, not so sure if the user experiences will degrade after 5G NSA shutdown.

Not using any MVNOs myself, I only use SingTel SIM Only Plus, S$15.28 per month now, previously S$20.37 per month.

Looking at the threads here, Zym and Zero1 seem to be more popular among Singtel based MVNOs. You may check out the respective thread.

Others may probably help you better.
