I saw this cheap mifi (price below 200) but the description wasn't clear. Will I be connected to 5G or "fast" 4G network?

The seller got defensive summore when I asked simple question: is it 4G (B28) or 5G?
I suppose sifus here can answer this?

it's a trap.

4G - band 28
5G - band 78

best 5G portable router / MiFi would cost >RM1000 to work properly.

i bought a ZTE MU5120 for RM1,600 last year for my umobile 5G home package.

really satisfied, speed is fast and rarely auto reboot. Not that hot, battery lasted around ~10 hours or so and can cater max 32 devices.

OK, sounded like the seller was trying to avoid admitting that the mifi still connects to 4G network by "playing with words".

In this case, for example, if I have a sim plan that offer unlimited 5G and 50GB FUP for 4G/LTE, connecting to this "B28" will use up my 4G allocation?

yup, since b28 only for 4G. your 50GB FUP 4G/LTE will be used up in no time.

I've seen that flymodem cheap modem from china before in shopee. "It's too good to be true" for a 5G MiFi with that price of ~RM300. laugh.gif
