I'm finally in the Hong Kong airport waiting for my flight. Spent 4 days here used my iPhone throughout and even now without any problem with connection. Even in the most crowded MTR train and station I did not have any connection problem, I really mean never. Even in any tunnel no problem still able to surf the net and post.

When I am in Singapore very often in the MRT train the speed is agonizingly slow and often experience time-out. Even if it is not that crowded. What is the reason? I mean Singapore is supposed to be what, Communications Hub, IT Hub, Computer Hub all the fucking hub names you can think of. I don't hear Hong Kong always singing the hub song.

See these hongkongers happily using their phones and many watching videos too. I really enjoyed the Hong Kong system (CSL by the way)

By the way I noticed more Samsung Galaxy (S and Notes) than iPhones

dunno about their 3G, 4G networks but if what you say is true then obviously sg is fucked up. As for more samsung phones compared to iphones sg has an increase in samsung phone usage just that some ppl bought their iphones on plans and if it has not expired they most likely won't buy a new phone that's why u see ppl still using iphones.

It also depends on your telco. In London, 3 has the best 3G network, their infrastructure was built for 3G and beyond. EE claim to have a good 4G LTE signal in most major cities but general feedback from customers is that it is no better than T-Mobile/Orange 3G (its predecessor).

Now in aircraft so many people around me logged in using their smartphones I can still come into post. If I'm in Changi now I dare bet I will not be able to post or post with frustration.

Ok let's be objective here - why its more difficult for Singtel and Starhub users to use the internet when there is a crowd in Sinkapore? This is the real question can we answer or are sinkies being fucked again here?

Singapore definition of connectivity is you have connection. Good bad is different issue. One base unit shared by a million is also connected.

hk cellular coverage super good due to intense competition. she's the 1st city that i know of that implemented multi-storey microcell coverage and cell splits among high rises. they also saturate the underground and tunnels with distributed antenna systems. now they are using a lot of remote radio heads connected with fiber.

That's the key word. Competition. Unlike Singapore's 'left hand vs right hand' pseudo competition.

The current CEO of Sinktel is a Familee relative. I rest my case.

When it comes to telco services, Singapore is the worst among the 'four tigers of Asia'.
