Simba 5G NSA speed is like 4G nothing spectacular

I think nothing great except feel good looking at the 5G icon.
But overseas I am not sure whether can get 5G network.

Will be heading to HK tonight. Can test my Simba 500gb for 6 days... VS Singtel Worldwide Roaming 30gb.

Good luck .

I believe i got 5G in JB. Can't confirm though.

 

[kitkat2]

we have alot maybe..simba doesn't also provide the least lowest latency..

the ocw site reported 13ms.

at least simba 5G is lower than simba 4G, no?

different people test get different results, whats yours?

My tests are very simple.

Can surf EDMW, pass.
Cannot surf EDMW, fail.

Regardless of speeds.

Anyone use the Simba home boardband? How is the speed and connectivity etc.

you should ask at the internet connectivity thread. There is a thread there where people ask, too.

What do you mean by speed and connectivity? Their fibre is 10gbps and speed is often hindered by your legacy devices and old wifi chips. It's a whole different story from mobile internet

Recommend real world tests, e.g. smoothness of YouTube videos or twitch livestreams, etc. Speed tests tend to not reflect real world usage

I use speedtest app to give me a sensing of type of users in the area at different time and what my mobile operator do about it.

some people "sense' not that good speed test app is the way to go

Correct it is a basic tool for people to use. Too reliant also bad. Don't have also bad ..

speedtest just a number to me to see if the network crash or not. usually 5-10mbps everything will load can liao. same as driving 10kmh more, you reach your destination 3mins faster lor ok

5mbps already can support YouTube 1080p video. I don't know why we need higher speed on handphone when travelling in the train.

Because there are more people on the train which needs 5Mbps for their Youtube 1080p.

But if the speed test is indicating 5Mbps, it means all the users are allocated with that speed, even when all of the users are watching 1080p video it is still alrite? Isnt so?

IMHO.
That is why you need high speed to allocate users that speed ?

?? If 5Mbps speed is sufficient for 1080p video, and if everyone at that area is allocated that speed, why is there a need for high speed?

IMHO.
Let's say 10 users need to watch Youtube at 5 Mbps. You need 5 Mbps or 50 Mbps ?
