KLIA issue was last year August.

Overall experience not bad la, its just that certain city area congested as hell.

Boleh pakai, if u at City area, confirm no problem (outdoors).

But bear in mind, the indoor coverage is not as good as the big 2 telcos.

Umobile definitely better than yes 😜🔥

i was walking around SWP mall over the weekend with my family, in certain part of the mall, my son's umobile has no signal, my wife's Digi also no signal, but my maxis line got 4G signal and can stream video. So being in KL does not mean no issue, signal strength inside the building is still an issue.

from my testing M perform better inside mall follow by D,
one of the old coffee shop lots i’ve been M can’t even load ewallet Lol

Indoor coverage really location dependent. You'll be surprised places like IOI Mall Puchong, U Mobile has a way usable network with better signal strength compared to CelcomDigi and Maxis.

Even smaller malls in Old Klang Road, Bloomsvale only has Maxis coverage (other telco can receive some signal from outdoor), but within walking distance, another mall, Pearl Point only has CelcomDigi coverage (same as well, other telco rely on outdoor signal)

Even within same company, Sunway Geo only has CelcomDigi indoor coverage in the basement, and I forgot another Sunway property which only has Maxis coverage.

At the end, no telco is perfect especially indoor. Outdoor coverage is more predictable

CelcomDigi and U Mobile are sharing indoor coverage infrastructure in a few smaller malls in Klang Valley such as PJ33 (Maxis no coverage in basement), and Empire City Mall parking basement (only sharing in basement, other offices and retail spaces remain separated)

So yeah, hopefully network sharing between telco could make telco more profitable and having better initiative to install indoor coverage in less profitable areas

got 4.5G for umobile..

I ditched Maxis for U Mobile since 2019. So far acceptable.

Some places have good coverage and fast 4G. Sometimes even with 4G but the speed is slower than 2G.

But, the price is dirt cheap for a family plan. My previous family plan under Maxis was over 500+ monthly. U Mobile only 150 bucks. With large data cap, this is perfect for family use where speed wasn't all that important.

Basement right. It seems CelcomDigi has "balas budi" to U Mobile haha. The ZTE initiative is great, now everyone got signal

I do noticed the indoor coverage is a lot better now with indoor coverage sharing agreement from both side. For some reason, it made Maxis the inferior telco when it comes to in-building coverage now.

Recently just changed to this telco, super bad experience, Internet 5G/4G slow during streaming(YouTube) event in the KL area, outside KL more worse last week when Melaka, all the time Internet at Edge.

Indoor phone call lagi cacat voice keep breaking.

U Mobile seems to be fine from my experience. Speeds are similar to Maxis and sometimes better on 4G.

5G congestion is the rule of the land. Blame DNB.

Just to add my 2 sen for U Mobile is that the signal is cacat when at the airport gate when masuk the aeroplane. No signal for both KLIA and KLIA2. When I ask the passengers next to me who have data signal, they use CelcomDigi.

Also as orang Labuan, there is no U Mobile reception when inside some buildings while CelcomDigi have signal... so ended up ported my U Mobile to CelcomDigi as I've been grandfathered plan for U28 postpaid with the measly 3GB quota since... 2014?

At least CelcomDigi 40 SE plan is 40GB quota for RM40 and better coverage for my usual lepak place.

If u are not that data hungry, u could port to CelcomDigi XV30, RM30 for 20GB data with unlimited call, but this plan is only available on normal phone shops, not official store

Arghh too late already signed up for 12 months contract for the 5G 40 SE since I port in at the CelcomDigi Labuan branch lol.

New tower near my house, far taller than other, U Mobile is the only deadzone here (other telco at 3 storeys shoplot, U Mobile one storey high, Unifi no site nearby but can use Maxis 4G_). I think is U Mobile 5G since they have been eagerly swapping antenna in my Taman as well as nearby but other than the site nearby this tower

There's one near a Speedmart in my housing area. I'll keep an eye and see if they added AAUs and/or do a radio swap.
