Note: The article was originally published on 16 September 2021, 9.40AM, and updated again at 9.50PM with Singtel offering early re-contract for certain subscribers. More details below.
16 September 2021, 9.50PM update: Customers who have completed a minimum of 10 months on their contract are eligible to re-contract for the iPhone 13. Early device upgrade fees are partially or fully waivered, depending on your phone line contract with Singtel.
The waivers are as follows:
- Singtel Circle keyline customers (also known as nominated customers) who have completed a minimum of 10 months on their contract will enjoy a full waiver of the Annual Handset Upgrade Fee worth S$500.
- Non-Singtel Circle keyline customers who have completed 10 to 17 months on their current contract pay only S$350 for early device upgrade (originally S$500). This offer is only valid until 30 September 2021.
- Non-Singtel Circle keyline customers who have completed 18 to 20 months on their current contract pay S$200 for an early device upgrade (originally S$500).
A "non-Singtel Circle keyline customer" refers to Singtel users who only have XO Plus or other two-year contract phone lines, as well as Singtel Circle users who are not the keyline (main line). Here's a recap on what a Singtel Circle keyline subscriber is (basically, having qualifying fibre broadband and phone lines under one name).
Singtel also updated its landing page to reflect this new offer on its website.

Singtel still offers their traditional Combo mobile plans which you can check at the source link below. Realistically, we don't think those plans are suitable for many in 2021 and thus we're not covering them in our report. For ultra heavy talk time needs, you can always add additional talk time to the XO Plus plans since a big data bundle is a necessity these days.
