Heartlander Turbocharged December 25, 2012 Share December 25, 2012 Yesterday got this after knowing about it from another forum. Sxxxhub is offering this LTE tablet free if you sign up their MaxValue Elite plan at $51 for 12 months which is bundled with 11GB of 4G data monthly. I believe the tablet need no introduction for those interested in tablets. It is a quad-core CPU with latest spec including a detachable keyboard that double as battery. Its lesser brother TF300TG which is 3G only is being retailed at $899 currently, and you are getting it FREE with the promotion. The normal selling price of 6month old TF300TG is about $600 to $700, and you are getting a brandnew TF300TL together with 12 months of LTE data plan thrown in for just $620. You could even sell the tablet at $800 and still earn a bit with the LTE plan free for 12months! For comparison, Sxxxtel offers the same thing at $500 with 24 months of $50 subscription with 10GB of LTE data monthly. http://www.starhub.com/content/promotions/...obileelite.html For record, I have nothing to gain from this deal as I do not work for any telco. Do hurry up as there is limited stock from what I was told. Cheers. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their 3G service is sucks big time... even M1 is much better. 4G??? If cannot even provide a proper 3G service, I cant imagine hows their 4G..

Heartlander Turbocharged December 25, 2012 Author Share December 25, 2012 (edited) u may wanted to consider twice before choosing starhub.... If the deal is with Singtel or even M1, maybe can consider... Their 3G service is sucks big time... even M1 is much better. 4G??? If cannot even provide a proper 3G service, I cant imagine hows their 4G.. You have tried their 4G service? Actually i have also been sceptical about the telco, with whole clan having many lines with Singtel. But this offer is difficult to miss if you have given it due considerations. Even if you do not want the expensive freebie, you can still sell it at a good profit without any loss. About the FREE TF300TL, it should be familiar to those who tinkle with tablets. Among the top Android tablets, if not the top. About the sxxxhub 4G, I did speedtest and got a DL/UL speed that is between 3G and 4G speed of Singtel. I tried to watch korean drama at night and noon time, there is no interruption at all. I used my Note with Sxxxtel 3G, can't even do a proper rendering of GUI on my streaming app to see what shows available. My experience with 3G is that none can make it when you want to use it during peak time like holiday and weekends, not even able to surf net. At least the sxxxhub 4G is good enough to let me watch online movies/drama leh. ok enough hardsell. I am not getting paid for this. Have nothing to gain anyway. Definitely not my loss. Cheers.

Blackyv Turbocharged December 25, 2012 Share December 25, 2012 agree that overall, ST coverage is the widest islandwide but that's just "numbers"......for actual user, other factor also must take into consideration... like where they live and work and their hanging out place... my living hall is a blind spot for ST (masterbedroom signal is strong...) and dont even come to my place if your r on M1..... only SH gives me consistence signal ..... just this year, i port over to SH from ST after with them for like 12yrs...... and same goes for signal in my new office, SH stronger than ST... so, SH for me for the time being unless they screw up in future, i will port to whichever telco suite me best....

Panerex77 1st Gear December 25, 2012 Share December 25, 2012 Is this a laptop where the screen can be detache and become a tablet? The starhub picture seems to indicate so. What is the weight of the gadget? And is the starhub spec the same as per what you can buy from retail shops? What is the retail price? Maxmobile - is it broadband on mobile plan, where we can insert the sim card into the tablet? Pardon for so many questions. And many thanks to TS for this heads up! Seems to be an attractive promo ESP for pple like me who doesn't have a tablet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxmobile is a mobile brodband plan that come with a sim card. The tablet accepts both regular sim card and micro-sim card. The Asus TF300TL can't be purchased thru' retailers, and its lesser3G brother TF300TG is being retailed by Best Denki, Challenger etc for $899.

Panerex77 1st Gear December 25, 2012 Share December 25, 2012 Does starhub also give a USB dongle too? I am thinking how I will be able to use the mobile broadband plan on my normal laptop. Will I be able to use my old singtel hspa USB modem for the starhub 4g sim card? This seems to be a good deal, ESP if I compare to the similar singtel deal. Don think the promo will end in the next few days right since it has only started a few days ago? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I called starhub hotline on 24/12 morning (yesterday), was told Parkway branch got only less than 15 sets. Not sure bout other branches. Just walk in and collect on-the-spot.

Why not you use the tablet on hot-spot mode to share data with your laptop? Starhub does not provide any 4G dongle, must buy yourself if you really want. Starhub not sure, but Singtel 3G sim card = 4G sim card, just activate on backend. If Singtel, using on 4G dongle should be no problem. Promotion is while stock last, which is not alot from what I was told by hotline. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
