giga has more talk time and sms.
Unfortunately they didn't allow existing customers on $10 plan to upgrade to the $18 promotional plan. Gonna port out to Grid CIS plan for now and maybe port back to Giga when there's another good promotion.

5G still long way.

The base station and indoor coverage are limited. So still need another 2 years to build the required coverage and another 1-2 year to fine tune the network to hit higher 5G speed.

Just like 4G release in SG on DEC 2012.

4G LTE band are able to enjoy typical download rates between 3.4Mbps to 12Mbps with a theoretical top speed of up to 75Mbps *

- We are getting higher 4G speed now as compare to early days.

Now better enjoy the cheap 4G plan.

Headed there and no regrets.
Changed my mind on Grid

Went to Gomo today.

Last day for their 40GB $20.

decided to pay $2.10 more for the extra 180 min talk time.

Only downside is that I will "waste" 8 days of giga because Gomo charge on the day you sign up but first cycle is 30+5 days.

What is the highest speed you have achieved with Gomo? I remember seeing people mentioned that gomo has speed cap at 75mbps. Did you Speedtest go over 75?
