Testing: West of Singapore
West of Singapore
A strong 5G network serves as one key thrust for our nation's Smart Nation ambitions, and what better than having business parks to represent that? We visited the Biopolis and One-North region with this in mind. Besides, StarHub also listed Buona Vista and One-North as one of the many places with 5G deployment. With that, we added these two locations to the test.
Also, we returned to the two locations tested before: West Mall and Jurong East area.
Biopolis area (nexus of Helios, Chromos, Centros)
We managed speeds of 384Mbps in an area between Starbucks and Bodacious. Also, ample 5G coverage is observed from the area bounded by Helios, Centros, and Chromos, all the way until a few meters into the One-North Park itself.
One-North area (outside Fusionopolis One)
While we were able to get some 5G speeds (and some rather low LTE speeds) in this particular spot in between Galaxis and Fusionopolis One, near carpark entrance, the 5G coverage in this area is still a hit-and-miss affair.
Outside West Mall in Bukit Batok
5G speeds have certainly improved tremendously compared to the last test, though the LTE speeds here are commendable too. Similar to our earlier attempts, StarHub's 5G upload speeds still require more work.
Jurong area (in between Jem and West Gate)
This is another test area where 5G signal was captured, but the Speedtest app still indicated LTE. Overall, there wasn't much improvement, with speeds on par with its LTE network.
