Found this in Woolies catalog for this week.
Indeed a better offer than what Optus is offering ($120 for $160 kit)
Optus is 5g, Catch is only 4g
How does 4g compare to 5g? I notice sometimes my phone switch between the 2.
Also how is optus network?
I have inability to call and text from time to time while on Vodafone
Wireless cellular is just a collection of radio frequencies reserved and allocated to other entities to provide cellular connectivity. This is also why the previous 1G-3G networks were shut down to free up radio bandwidth for 4G and 5G.
The benefit of 5G so far in a predominantly 4G world is less congestion, meaning phone calls can be higher quality and cellular internet bandwidth can be bigger, which is useful in crowded places such as shopping centres, sports arenas and concerts.
There are indeed speed increases of 5G over 4G, but the two most common methods of 5G implementation (Sub-6 and mmWave) have tradeoffs between faster speeds and shorter range (mmWave), or slower speeds and longer range (Sub-6).
@FujinShu: Thanks i gotcha. Like the trade of similar in wifi in 2.4 and 5ghz frequencies.
Would you know why i am having probs with vodafone btw? I never had problems with telstra so would probably switch back
still yet to find a use for 5g except flatten my battery in half the time.
It’s 4G plus network
same thing
Wonder if Coles will price match … no Woolworths near me
It has to be exactly the same.
Can SIM cards be bought using gift card? Also, can you stack everyday dollars?
Yes, SIM cards aren’t gift cards, everything goes. Also covered by the 10% monthly discount.
Oh yes I forgot about 10% monthly discount
starter pack work with both, recharges don't.
186 days not 365 boo
365 days is for $240 on Optus website
Rip
Can't find the dates to be activated? Anyone has any ideas?
The catalog says activate within 30 days
Or for the same price you get 10Gb less but for twice as long…on the same network
