News & Reviews:   unifi mobile

The Unifi Mobile app is now rebranded as Unifi Universe, with a new, fresher logo. This is interesting progress from the local company. So, what should you know about it?

In Opensignal's latest Malaysia Mobile Network Experience Report, we have noticed some interesting insights. Long story short, this year's results show a big jump in download speeds by Malaysians thanks to 5G rollouts.

Opensignal's latest Global Mobile Network Experience Awards 2024 report has some interesting key findings on Malaysia's telco 5G operations. According to the report, all six of Malaysia’s national operators are listed in the Global Rising Stars for Download Speed Experience. 

Besides YES 5G, Telekom Malaysia (TM) already joined Digital Nasional Bhd's (DNB) 5G single wholesale network a long time ago. Despite that, there were no signs of any 5G package plans yet until today. Although nothing is official yet, a trip to the JENDELA map would say otherwise.

Deputy Communications and Multimedia Minister, Datuk Zahidi Zainul Abidin yesterday revealed in Parliament that two compounds have been issued to mobile service providers in Malaysia for not meeting the standard set by his ministry. As reported by national news agency Bernama, the two compounds include one amounting to RM60000 and the other compound amounting to RM20000 that is currently beng processed.

Zahidi further revealed that the two service providers compounded were Celcom, which failed to meet the standard in Sabah and the other one is Unifi Mobile, which failed to meet the standard in Melaka and Pahang. The Deputy Minister also confirmed that the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) has opened 20 investigation papers on mobile service providers in our country. 

Over the weekend, you may have come across some news about unifi launching 5G services in February 2022. As exciting as it sounds, the company has backtracked the remark with an official statement regarding 5G services.

In late November, the government has actively been discussing 5G implementation. Telco companies will inevitably be heavily involved in the testing phase that's starting soon. And as expected, Telekom Malaysia (TM) is among the group.

Today, unifi quietly launched a new unifi Mobile 99 data plan promotion. For this launch, the SIM card is priced at RM59 (RRP: RM99) per month and it is on a limited time offer. 

Today, Opensignal is back once again with another report and this time it's the Global Mobile Network Experience Awards 2021. It wasn't too long ago that they presented us with their 10th Anniversary Global Awards 2020 last year, so if you're wondering what's new in the latest one - here's what you need to know.

While many have returned to their offices, there are others who have been told to remain from home. For these people, local telcos have all provided 1GB of mobile data daily so that they can have internet access at home. On TM's side though, unifi Mobile is also going to provide 1GB of 4G LTE data daily.
