Following the launch of the HONOR Magic V5 in mid-July, the foldable flagship device is now available through Malaysia’s leading telcos, offering flexible postpaid plans that make this premium device more accessible than ever. This includes CelcomDigi, Maxis, U Mobile and Yes, for as low as RM70 per month.

From 9 to 31 July 2025, Malaysian customers can pre-order the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7, not just from Samsung Malaysia but also from our local telcos. Whether through U Mobile, Maxis, CelcomDigi, or YES 5G, you will find different offerings. In this article, we will be comparing each telco's pre-order promotion.

In conjunction with the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7, U Mobile is offering a device promo tied to its family plan. But before we get into what the promo is all about, below is a recap of the details of the two new Samsung foldable smartphones.

In preparation for its Next Gen 5G network, U Mobile has inked a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Melaka ICT Holdings Sdn Bhd (MICTH). The partnership is another step towards U Mobile’s goal of achieving 80% nationwide coverage of populated areas (CoPA) by the second half of 2026.

As U Mobile continues to build up its Next-Gen 5G network, the company has formalised a strategic partnership with OCK Telco Infra Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of OCK Group Berhad, Malaysia’s largest telecommunications network solutions provider. The collaboration led to a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), which positions OCK as one of U Mobile’s preferred partners for 5G In-Building Coverage (IBC) infrastructure.

In case you missed it, the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) has requested mobile phone call data from telco companies in Malaysia. This has caused a controversy, as an invasion of the privacy of users. Below are all the official responses from CelcomDigi, Maxis, U Mobile and Telekom Malaysia.

Today, U Mobile has once again made another strategic partnership, this time with Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM), to accelerate the nationwide deployment of its 5G network. It will be a 10-year agreement, valued at RM2.4 billion, and was formalised today at a signing ceremony held at Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara.  

Today, The Edge reported that U Mobile has agreed to sell its entire 100,000 shares in Digital Nasional Bhd (DNB) for RM100,000. The shares will be acquired by CelcomDigi, Maxis, YTL Power International, and the Minister of Finance Inc (MOF Inc), according to filings with Bursa Malaysia.

In preparation for the Next Gen 5G network, U Mobile has signed a Term Sheet agreement to appoint Celcom Timur Sabah (CT Sabah) to deploy 5G leased circuits in the Sabah and WP Labuan. CT Sabah is a leading provider of high-speed fibre optic infrastructure in the state and federal territory.

Today, U Mobile has named Huawei Malaysia and ZTE Malaysia as its technology partners for Malaysia’s Next Gen 5G network. The signing ceremony was witnessed by YB Datuk Fahmi Fadzil, Communications Minister of Malaysia, and Li Lecheng, Party Secretary of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People’s Republic of China, at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC).
