Not really. The faster the speed, may result in lesser quota to use instead due to the cost invested in the Indra. The cost of infra for mobile network is certainly higher than fixed line.
simple example 3 or 3.5GB time the quota is more, come to 4G speed is a lot faster but the quota is way too little given the demand amount of data for activities such as video steaming, web surfing etc.
Even there are faster network for mobile in future, it only means u can surf or stream faster, but it also means u will use up the quota faster. It is certainly not a replacement for fixed line broadband which is on faster speed, more stable, most importantly unlimited.
even certain Telco has unlimited data now, but the speed is still comparable to fixed line not to say to share among multiple users at home.
Lion city is a good example. The whole island has covered with Fiber. The monthly subscription for a
1GB can be as Low as sgd30 for 1Gbps plan. a cheapest mobile plan which even without handset contract after add in caller id etc is also
sgd30 like that for a 3GB data plan.
mobile data can compliment fixed line for on the go usage but it is still hard to replace fixed line anytime soon.
The Fiber plan is more expensive than the mobile plan n is not unlimited data?

tm is smart, last year come our free upgrade scheme to trap those who Long to want a 50Mbps and 100Mbps plan to sign at rm179 and rm229 first. they have managed to capture a large number of users to this who are willing to pay this price.
Then they come out cheaper plan rm129 who signed the unifi lite. those who had longed waited for this kind of price will sign. So again they capture a large number of users who are willing to pay this price.
Then they come
rm99 plan to attract the last batch of users to sign which they still find the two above expensive now willing to pay at this price.
The strategy is smart that maximum individual maximum Budget but ultimately all of them will still sign the service. It is just a matter of time and what is the maximum Budget they are willing to fork out. No matter how they will still sign to a service, just the price different.
To telco. If the infra is there, it is still better to lease out even at cheaper price than leaving there idle.

Again which rm99 plan is this, education plan?
