Please walk in to any Digi center, and there's no more online MNP.

It quite easily to reach 300gb monthly if you stream 1080p60 on twitch for 2-4 hour on working day and more on weekens/holiday. Just ytday stream twitch like 4-5 hour already ate my quota like 10-11gb ,using celcom atm.

Only prepaid or? I saw can switch number on postpaid

I call to 123 before.

they told me the speed will throttle to 64kbps. LOL

What's your experience so far?

It's getting more n more OT on this Digi i150.

The Maxis home fibre is for my own exclusive use. Whilst both my parents use their Maxis mobile data 24/7. Since the start of MCO, they have consistently hit over 300GB of mobile data usage every billing cycle based on our own tracking. But Maxis so far never managed the speed of their video streaming, and they can browse the internet just fine.

By the way, we’re staying in the part of KL where there are more Maxis subscribers than Digi subscribers.


Tell the CS to email a black and white copy of the T&C stating so to you because it contradicts with the published T&C pertaining to mobile data allocation to Maxis Unlimited Postpaid and Fibre on their website.

Dude not everyone have fibre at home

No longer you get all you can download provision with content servers anymore today since they already can calculate how much a single user can stream per day. Nowadays content providers are also quietly throttling users with daily quota of around 10-15GB per day with DDL/streaming.

It is not only your ISP which is throttling you. Servers such as Netflix and those DDL file hosting servers are also doing it to prevent abuse from their accounts that are shared via Debrid hosters.

Take for example my VPNHub account has a 10GB daily limit cap on it. Once exceeded from full speed will be capped at 512kbps and the app tracks me through device MAC ID not just by changing IP can circumvent it.

Also these streaming websites are smart to calculate that a person could at most stream 10-20GB(FUP) at most per day unless you are stuck on the couch like a robot watching movie non stop which is unlikely if you're working. Those who are claiming that they can use the account for prolong periods of time per day are very likely or suspected to be SHARING their accounts with many others.

A HD movie is with a length of 90mins on average(1 and a 1/2 hr) is about 2GB in size, how many hours can you sit in front of the TV streaming?10 hours per day and consistently every day 24/7 365 days a week?

When I was subscribing to DiGi Infinite 150 2 years ago, with me being the only user I only get to use my internet at home only after working hours before sleep and on weekends. Even 250GB was difficult to reach.
For the 12 months of using it, I barely could even reach 500GB with heavy downloads despite having a TV box and using simultaneously with a laptop.

So as you can see content and VPN providers are also implementing hidden quotas on their accounts to prevent abuse of sharing accounts with many users and from ripping their entire library of movies/contents overnight by media pirates.

''''''' Here's how the streams break down on average.

Low quality video is very low-quality. think 240p or 360p. Low-quality settings will use about 0.3GB (300MB) per hour.

SD quality video is standard 480p video. SD-quality video uses about 0.7GB (700MB) per hour.

HD quality video is between 720p and 2K (remember, the app adjusts the stream). HD-quality video uses about 0.9GB (720p), 1.5GB (1080p) and 3GB (2K) per hour.

UHD quality video uses a lot of data. A 4K stream uses about 7.2GB per hour.
.

Afaik;

In general, 360p/SD video quality is good enough for the 6" screen of smartphones; 720p/HD is good enough for 14" laptops; 1080p/FHD is good enough for 21" desktop monitors and large TV up to 55" and 4k/2160p/UHD is needed for screens larger than 55", eg projectors.

For those who watch videos on large TV of more than 55", they need to stream at 4k/2160p/UHD. A 1-hour video = 7GB of data consumed. 4-hours daily = about 30GB. 1 month = about 900GB.
....... So, the Digi Infinite 150 phone/modem plan boleh pakai in this case since throttling to 5Mbps only happen when exceeded 1TB of data used per month. Otherwise go for unlimited TM Unifi Home Fiber or other Home Fiber plans.

I'm not sure whether watching Live TV or Live sports from the web uses more data than the above figures.

''''''' The table below shows the approximate speeds recommended to play each video format.

Video Resolution/Recommended sustained speed
4K ...............20 Mbps
HD 1080p ... 5 Mbps
HD 720p ... 2.5 Mbps
SD 480p ... 1.1 Mbps
SD 360p ... 0.7 Mbps '''''''

Other video-streaming sites may have different or higher speed recommendation.

For live-streaming, eg Live TV and Live Sports, double the above Mbps figures.

''''''' 360p

Videos at 360p are well-suited to smartphones and other mobile devices since they use up less data, but may appear a bit blurry on larger screens. ...

1080p

For an even higher resolution, you can download your videos at 1080p, another favorite for HD television stations. We recommend this resolution for sharing on social media or for showing videos on larger screens and TVs, since it’ll give your audience the highest possible quality display, with crystal clear playback. '''''''
.

Watching videos at 1080p instead of 360p on a 6" screen smartphone does not give a big visual advantage. OTOH, watching videos at 360p instead of the optimum 1080p on a 39" screen TV gives a big visual disadvantage, ie very blurry videos.
....... Similarly, watching videos at 1080p instead of the optimum 2160p/4k on a 75" screen TV gives a big visual disadvantage, ie blurry videos.

Brother, it's a big difference to watch a 360p and 720p video in a 6" screen smartphone.

For 360p, you can see a lot of boxes in the videos and all the scenes are blurred.

But for 720p, you can see less boxes and the scenes are clearer.

I streamed and watched the above Youtube MV at 360p on my 6" mid-end Honor 7X smartphone, the video is clear and without any empty pixel boxes = watching it at 1080p or 720p does not give a big visual advantage = mostly a waste of bandwidth speed and data consumed.
.

Maybe my eyes are not good, so I can see many empty pixel boxes in 360p and 480p videos.

depend on your phone screen resolution also, if 720p then ok lor, if full HD or higher, then you gonna see pixelated picture

I will not tolerate anything below 720p. 720p is my minimum requirement.

The screen resolution of most Android smartphones can be lowered, eg if the default highest screen resolution is giving problem during video-streaming, especially during live video-streaming and Zoom conference live video-calls. .......

''''''' How to change your phone's resolution

Whether you already have one of the aforementioned phones, or you're gearing up for the upcoming Galaxy S20 and its rumored 120Hz WQHD+ display, lowering your phone's resolution is a quick and simple process. Just bear in mind that the exact steps will differ a bit depending on what kind of phone you're using — we're using a Galaxy Note 10+ for the sake of this guide, but the steps are generally the same across the board.

Open the Settings app.
Tap Display.
Tap Screen resolution.
Choose your desired resolution. Generally speaking, the higher the resolution, the sharper your text will be, along with the accompanying battery drain.

Another important thing to note is that not every phone supports reduced resolutions. The smaller Galaxy Note 10, for example, can't be configured up or down from its default FHD+ (2280x1080) resolution. '''''''

https://www.techradar.com/sg/news/phone-and...promise-1282880 - 4K smartphone displays require big battery life compromise - January 30, 2015

''''''' "For the large screen 4K is very good, but on a smaller smartphone display our eyes may not be able to see the difference between this and 2K resolutions.

"4K requires a lot of power, so if you use it you need to make compromises. A 4K display on a smartphone will give you half a day of battery life, but a 2K display can give you over a day of usage from a single charge." '''''''

I think 4k/2160p displays are also very taxing on the phone's processors and RAM = require high-end or flagship phone specifications.
