What do you get with StarHub?

As part of the launch promo, StarHub’s Mobile+ customers get the following:

Samsung Online Store e-voucher worth up to S$300 (depending on your phone choice) and a Lucky Bag redemption that includes a Silicone Cover and Strap, worth over S$100.

You'll notice that StarHub has swapped Apple TV+ with Hotstar access, which is great if you're into Bollywood shows (there's plenty of good content if you've not experienced it). What's even better is StarHub capitalising on yet another unique service offering with half a year of GeForce Now cloud gaming service, the first ISP in Southeast Asia to debut this. If you're a gamer who wants to use any and all screen options wherever you are, this is a service that will grow on you. Find out more about it here, but take note that you still have to own the games you intend to play.

Last but not least, StarHub also released price plans for the laptop replacement Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 (5G) tablet series and they come with all the same perks listed for the Galaxy S22 counterpart. So here's a short summary:-
