More and more people are considering using a 5G mobile plan to replace home broadband, especially for those who live alone or don't use a lot of data. But is 50GB per month really enough?
If you mainly use it for browsing social media, reading news and light streaming, 50GB a month should be enough. But if you have a habit of watching Netflix, YouTube 4K or downloading large files, 50GB will run out quickly. Watching Netflix 4K uses about 7GB per hour, so 50GB is only enough for 7 hours.
Another thing to consider is latency. Although 5G has lower latency than 4G, it is still not as good as fibre broadband. If you want to play games or do video conferencing, fibre will be more stable. In addition, using your phone as a hotspot to share with other devices consumes a lot of battery.
We recommend that if you live alone and don't use a lot of data, using 5G for home internet is feasible. But if you have a family or need high stability, fibre broadband is still a better choice. WhatsApp enquiry and we'll help you find the best plan for you!
