I saw on Hotlink website saying 3mbps is for HD streaming and 6mbps is for FHD streaming.
So basically is I do not require to have full HD, 3mbps is actually sufficient for everything basics such as social media, video call, webinars... Right?
Anyone tried both can share with us your experience?

with 3MBPS you can streaming HD no issues.

But... you wont be getting 3mbps for sure...

Dunno about Hotlink but I have Xpax rm35 plan with 3mbps cap.

YouTube runs fine. Probably not HD but video is clear and sharp enough on my small iPhone 8 screen.

3Mbps is sufficient for most tasks..
For streaming.. 480p should be smooth.. 720p maybe little stuck here & there.. still watchable... 1080p doubt 🤔
