no need to talk in hindsight, everyone has different living conditions, and also i prefer buy from real store instead of buy online.Besides,many models displayed in the website not available in real store,price also much more expensive.

It seems that they're thinking of ceasing off 3G first instead.
2G network are still being used today, especially from Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and Internet-of-Things (IoT), mainly from commercial business and uses... Not for average daily consumers like us, except those elderly that uses 2G phone.
Although yes, 2G is "outdated" but somehow it still tends to generate some revenue for telcos.

If those devices were to be upgraded to support 4G, it's gonna involve some great costs to owners to buy and upgrade.
After all, those machines/devices uses less than around 50MB per month, where 2G network (either via GPRS or EDGE) are already sufficient to satisfy their needs, hence they don't necessarily need a high speed 4G network for their applications.

Either way, shutting down 3G might be making sense. We don't see many new 3G-only phones on market nowadays... Even the market's cheapest and lousiest phone are likely to support 4G already (whether it supports VoLTE or not, then it's different story  )
For the elderly people that is not tech savvy ones, they are either still on their 2G feature phones, OR already on 4G-enabled smartphones.

All Malaysian telcos already supports VoLTE, except...:
Celcom VoLTE is available to all Celcom Mobile Postpaid plan customers using iPhone 7 and above only.
Maxis, don't have VoLTE yet at all.

By the time when 3G has fully shutdown, and if you use a 4G phone that doesn't support VoLTE, then it would fallback to 2G network during calls.

Malaysia government really doing upside way. Other countries shutdown 2G, maintain 3G bt our country shutdown 3G and maintain 2G?

If you say 2G is still using the machine-to-machine (M2M) for those using commercial and business purposes. I think can't make sense. Compare from nearby country Singapore, they already shutdown 2G bt maintain 3G. So is means that they don't use so called M2M and IoT for commercial and business purposes anymore?

Same, I'm wondering why 3G and not 2G, spectrum used by 2G is way more valuable than 3G, and when phones fallback to 3G the internet is atleast some what usable, but if u were to switch your phone to 2G, basically can't do anything except calls.

I predict they want to save much resources cost.
Maintenance of 3G cost is quite higher than 2G.

So either way if u go rural area that don't have 4G, so u enjoy the hutan like walkie-talkie call. And no internet usage.

If that area doesn't have any kinds of "G" at all, then it's a gamble, either you might get at least a 4G service soon, or still continue as "No Service".

It is expected that all existing 3G cells towers will be upgraded to support 4G, so for that part, no need to worry in terms of places that is only covered by 3G now.

The final solutions to get ConnectME to cover of No service telco.

Well yes, but not everyone staying in deep rural areas can afford Connectme.
They've increased their monthly plans already, you know? No unlimited plans anymore..


So you better pray hard that your area to get covered by cellular service. 

Or perhaps Starlink haha

Digi myapp can check e-statement like hotlink?

can, login to mydigi via website

under Usage, you may request an itemized statement for up to 90 days by email

So only website can view?

I think so, cannot find the option in the app itself...
