Those on zero1 $15 plan with 5G SA, do you all have VoWifi? Voice over WiFi?
Is the $15 plan already on 5G SA, I was under the impression that it is going to be.
Unless it is those that recently port to this plan, then maybe already 5G SA.

My Zym $15.1 plan still on 5G NSA and VoWifi doesn't work.

NSA doesn't have that.. you need a new SIM card for 5G SA

Oh you mean 5G NSA doesn't support VoWifi ? Thought that is independent of 4G/5G ?

Sim card wise is expected given the information given, although it is really strange how they arranged this given that my sim card is under 6 months old.

I see.

I don't understand the logic behind that though. phasing out 5G NSA is something known to Singtel for years.
Why are they issuing non 5G SA compliant SIM until so close to the 5G SA availability.

Imda mandated telcos to start using 5G SA by end of the year, so all telcos and mvno have to start offering 5G SA. Since Singtel long started 5G SA, no issue for them, but singtel minions all using 5G NSA, which is technically faster 4G. And these mvno uses only 4G Sim card that was made long ago, it doesnt support 5G SA, hence need to change

I got my Z1 SIM a few days ago and I am on Streamo Freedom ($15) plan.

No 5G SA yet. Option to enable is greyed out on my iphone.

How to see if I have VoWifi? Wifi-Calling option?

Yup. Vowifi is WiFi calling, is there any option for you?

But did they say your sim is 5G SA ready?

Yes it is enabled and turned on by default.

They didnt say anything, the SIM card credit card size card also does not mention anything about 5G.

Hmm. Probably still the old sim i guess, then gradually they will ask people to come replace their sim.

You sign up streamo freedom online is 5g included right?

Btw can I ask, is there an option to port in AFTER getting the sim card? Like in the app or website

Or need to select port in and input number during sign up online?

Wah, that is so silly, and seriously is baffling.

maybe that person is using Android phones.

Only Apple got these weird restrictions. cannot activate 5G SA or don't even have this option on their phones. My old samsung phone, no matter what SIM, there is an option to turn on or off 5G SA

Sounds similar to when GIGA activated the 5G SA but iphone users had to wait for IOS 18 to be release to be able to get the updated carrier profile to use 5G SA

Yes. I ported into vivifi days ago. Seems like the only ST MVNO who already activated SA. My Z1 not yet also..
