Sorry, but getting to keep the Huawei device even after terminating the service while still in contract period AND not having to pay anything sounds too good to be true.

yup the tm staff ask me just take the simcard only for trial purpose as their system is not up to date for latest coverage. right now still finding any my friend that use unifi air for testing purpose. btw this celcom only get me max 3mbps download but can play 1080 youtube without problem. the real problem is there is quota for this package.

https://www.nperf.com/en/map/MY/-/44810.Uni...3339845&zoom=12 - Unifi 3G / 4G / 5G coverage map, Malaysia - purple areas = 4G

4G LTE cell tower has a max range of 3 miles/5km for Internet data and 10 miles for voice calls. It's cell signals are line-of-sight and can be blocked by dense objects like walls, tall buildings, hills, forests, heavy rain, etc.
....... 3G/4G cell towers are usually located in city areas and along main roads and highways(= cater for car nav apps like Waze).

4G LTE = about 30Mbps.
3G = about 2Mbps.

Yes. Can use on phone. I put 1 in my Mate 20 to test out
Yes. But band 5 max speed so far 11Mbps only. Usually below 2Mbps. Best to find device (modem or phone) that support B38 B40 but not B5 so u get to connect to fast bands if there is multiple tower nearby.

depends, it's actually depend
My area band 5 can get around 20mbps but band 40 after 6pm until midnight or weekends the speed just like snail...

ya, it sounds too good to be true
But mmg TM like this in the past, I nvr return any TM devices b4 this, don't know why they change their policy.

50:50 chance now to see after 2 years, can keep if lucky, u'll free to have such powerful device or otherwise

And in fact maybe 5G already common by then, the b618 might be outdated oredi, so no reason for them to claim back, who knows

they are not same model if I'm not mistaken
Unifi air is b618s-65d whereas celcom is b618-22d, both support different bands respectively

Or they oredi changed, I don't know...

I'm currently having two;

1. Unifi Air (subscribed on 22nd October 2019)
2. Digi Infinite 150

Currently I'm using modem Huawei B315s-607 with these band specs;

HUAWEI B315s-607:
4G Band 1/3/7/8/28/40 (FDD 700/900/1800/2100/2600 & TDD LTE 2300Mhz)
3G BAND: DC HSPA+,HSPA+, HSUPA/HSDPA/UMTS/900/2100 MHz
GSM BAND : 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz

At the same time, I also have iPad Pro 11.

I conducted test to see the speed.

So here's my result.

a. Unifi Air

i. Speedtest direct from iPad

user posted image

ii. Speedtest from wifi (Huawei)

user posted image

b. DiGi Infinite 150

i. Speedtest direct from iPad

user posted image

ii. Speedtest from wifi (iPad)

user posted image

Hence, looking at the result, it is the modem that forbid my Unifi Air to reach its full potential and DiGi have the best speed either direct or wifi.

In which it makes me think and I really need to have your guys advice here;

a. Which line i need to terminate?

b. Should I get Huawei B618 to replace my current Huawei modem?

Your kind advice is really appreciated.
