I asked them at Orchard Central and they told me it's more than just there and Kaki Bukit, so I went to check their website.

IIRC they'd a list at the counter but I thought I'd only check online when I need to change. Did take me a while to get to this link too.

Besides NSA/SA difference, Simba 5G only use n1 with 10MHz.
Compared that with Singtel / Shared M1+SH 100MHz in n78 & ~15MHz in n1, there is totally no contest.
Until / unless Simba get more spectrum for 5G, they are just not going to be able to match Singtel/M1/Starhub for 5G.

Everyone’s experience is different, but I am able to get around 100mbps on 5G. Good enough for me to do anything including video streaming. Hopefully Simba will be able to get more 5G bands in the future.

SIMBA still no 5G SA switch on ios 18. Might be a long wait before simba launches 5g sa. Surprisingly the volte toggle switch is gone…

Saw some references saying volte switch has been removed on ios as early as last year.

Is wifi calling working on ios 18 for Simba ?

Yes I heard it from Simba, but someone was able to get wifi calling working on android so want to check if there has been any change.

Did the international roaming data for Superroam max increase? It’s showing for me as 12GB in the app.

Not that I know of. The website still shows 10GB roaming.

 

[sango65]

strange, my 200GB line also increase roaming data from 5GB to 7GB

7GB of 5GB will imply it is a temporary boost rather than an actual increase.

Hmm. Maybe simba increased roaming data secretly just haven't announced.

So this $12 plan become 7GB international roaming.

And superoam max is 12GB . That's very good news. Can finally fight eight.

 

[Jurong640]

Looks like the $10 plan now gives 3GB roaming data

$12 plan gives 7GB roaming.

That's exciting news. They haven't officially announced.

SIMBA Telecom had upgraded all their plans with an additional 2 GB of data roam across all it's plans.
Senior plan was also upgraded to 80 GB of data, with 3gb roaming and 100mins

Waiting for their FB update

wow, if this is true, they really up the ante to compete with eight

The seniors really lucky, pay $5 and get 80GB local data

Wah. Senior plan upgrade is a huge massive upgrade from 20GB to 80GB. And roaming data from 1GB to 3GB.

Seniors can stay, and this deal is better than eight
