2022 5G era was the best. i really didnt think we needed another 5g network. fast forward to 2024 and 5G is worse than 4G in so many areas
in putrajaya, cyberjaya, malls and hospitals, ive had to manually set my phone to maxis 4g to use any data
switch back to 5g and it is unusable
worse is ioi city mall cant even make a whatsapp call on 5g lmao

Yes because 5g latency is so bad now even streaming services suffer

QUOTE(shaun_kok @ Sep 23 2025, 10:48 PM) Nowadays 5G is congested like hell. But even with the same "congested like hell" - the performance still varies a bit between different telcos - for example using Celcom (CelcomDigi) is slower than Yes or Maxis Hotlink. 4G is way much faster because the telcos actually actively expand it - but 5G rollout has been stagnant, because it is DNB's responsibility (more 5G cells definitely needed in my area). i noticed celcomdigi always slow with apps, but speedtest fastest. not enough peering combine to save cost only, digi never had that problem, only celcom before.

QUOTE(kenny16 @ Sep 25 2025, 03:13 PM) But I have tried Maxis and Celcomdigi, noticed that Maxis is much more slower loading than Celcomdigi.. maxis slow because network congestion celcomdigi slow because useless core network i pick the lesser of two evils haha at least i know if i move away from location maxis will still work celcomdigi need vpn, and the maxis will not play and bla bla. never ending
