News & Reviews:   Maxis SurfMore 50

This week, the much teased HTC 10 was officially launched and while there is still no Malaysian release date or pricing details, the value-beating ViVo V3Max made its Malaysian debut with 4GB of RAM, a fingerprint reader and more for just RM1399. Other notable Malaysia releases include the Canon EOS 1D X Mark II and a new line-up of Sony BRAVIA 4K HDR TVs. Not released for Malaysia but still officially announced was the Meizu Pro 6.

On the Telco Front, quite a few big names started up new battles like Celcom's new 18GB of Internet FIRST Platinum postpaid plan, Digi's RM80 for 10GB Internet update and U Mobile's roaming backpack. Celcom also announced their new Wonderoam roaming plan along with an extension of their FIRST Gold plan. Maxis also stayed true to their word with an update for their SurfMore 50 customers while overhyped WeBe just turned out to be a rebrand of P1, minus any concrete details or plans.

Maxis is slowly taking more actions now ever since their CEO apologized and promised to bring better upgrades. By now, if you are a Maxis SurfMore50 subscriber, you most probably have received the text telling you that Maxis is planning to increase the monthly data of SurfMore 50 from 2GB to 3GB. If you have not yet received one, you will probably receive one soon before the end of April because that is when this upgrade will begin to take place.
