Today, YTL Communications has commercially launched 5G Advanced through its service brand, Yes. The rollout, already live across the Klang Valley and on track for nationwide completion by December 2025, promises deeper 5G coverage, faster speeds, and AI-ready performance for both consumers and businesses.

As U Mobile progresses with its ULTRA5G expansion, the company announced it has signed a 10-year strategic partnership with SACOFA Sdn Bhd, Sarawak’s leading telecommunications infrastructure company, to strengthen its fibre backhaul capabilities and expand the telco’s ULTRA5G network across the state.

During the Apple Event, Apple has revealed its newest watches — the Apple Series 11, Apple Watch SE 3 and Apple Watch Ultra 3 — with enhanced 5G cellular connectivity. However, MacRumors reports that this newer 5G feature won’t be available immediately in many countries.

Today, U Mobile has taken another big step in expanding Malaysia’s 5G footprint, announcing the arrival of its ULTRA5G experience at the prestigious Mandarin Oriental Kuala Lumpur (MO). With support from digital infrastructure partner EDOTCO, the hotel has become the first in Malaysia to offer complete 5G coverage across every floor, setting a new benchmark for hospitality and digital innovation.

Malaysia’s 5G rollout is entering a new phase. Digital Minister Gobind Singh Deo has confirmed that all liabilities of Digital Nasional Bhd (DNB) will be fully absorbed by its telco shareholders once the government completes its divestment from the company—a move that marks a major shift in the country’s digital infrastructure strategy.

CelcomDigi is marking the nation’s Hari Kebangsaan and Hari Malaysia celebrations with Gemilang Deals, a lineup of value-packed offers covering Prepaid, Postpaid, Home Internet, 5G devices, and more. Running now until 18 September 2025, the campaign aims to keep Malaysians connected while enhancing their digital lifestyles.

Yesterday, Malaysia’s 5G rollout hit a major milestone: as of August 2025, high-speed connectivity now reaches 82.4% of populated areas nationwide, a huge leap from just 4% in 2021. This rapid expansion reflects the government’s push under the Malaysia MADANI framework to close the digital divide and ensure inclusive access to next-gen infrastructure.

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.

Today, CelcomDigi has officially unveiled Life, its new generation of flagship physical stores aimed at transforming how Malaysians engage with digital and connected technologies. Launched at The Gardens Mall and Sunway Pyramid, these experiential hubs were designed for customers to explore and test 5G, AI, and smart living products.

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.
