Connection is still smooth though, with exception of the one two times disconnection.

if the building you are in cannot receive, u won't be able to.

cannot even load a simple EDMW insai trains during peak hours.
i wonder how those ppl continue to play games and watch drama...

very jealous of the telco they are using. lol.

i'm using singtel 5g. oso cannot load when inside mrt.

Locally I no longer get 5G signals in many areas liao using same phone. Guess their bandwidth cmi with all those promos and new/existing users. Probably they will start to charge for 5G add on soon I guess. Speed also becoming even more cmi.

Simba is more suitable for users frequently traveling using data roaming and minimum local Singapire usage. If you need good local network and speed line. Then Simba not suitable

I don't even use Simba for local data lol. Just an observation as I realized network more or less always 4G -4G+ in most areas I go. I still get 5G overseas data roaming.

What's wrong with 4g. Why must use 5G. What apps are you using that need 5g

Mrt train has how many signal base? Probably 1 or 2 for each mnos. If it's a packed train, everyone is trying to use their phones, watching video, listening music, etc. Just not enough bandwidth to go around.

Simba 5G cmi. Download is almost same speed as 4G.

its well known perception - simba 5G speed is like 4G with 5G logo.
i use it maily for travelling - it works better out of sg than in sg.

So i am not the only one. Only 4g+ since weeks ago. Not change in bandwidth since 5g is just 4g too.

Maybe simba finally deploying the 5gSA network.

Ya I raised a ticket and they just tell me everything is fine lol. Good thing I'm not relying it's network for data in SG only calls and IDD calls.

expectations vs reality.
so i keep my mind open to prevent disappointment

Having 4G is standard, 5G is bonus.
Then again, SIMBA 5G is nowhere near traffic lights 5G.

I was away overseas for a few days & when I got home today, noticed my mobile is receiving 5G...all the time was 4G & in some places of my home 4G can't make it.

Now with 5G I'm getting 40 to 50 Mbps (vs 4G of less than 10 Mbps) - not bad lah.

I've no issues with SIMBA & loving it. Next week our 2nd Anniversary

Sent a service request via website to Simba checking on the unavailability of 5G coverage in areas which used to be covered (for myself and my friends/family). Just received a template reply by their customer service rep asking me to turn on 5G, check compatibility bla bla and emphasizing my plan comes with 5G lol.
