Singapore has 3 local telecom operators: M1, Singtel and Starhub. All cards work in 3G and 4G modes. The quality of Internet connection at all operators are the same. I specifically bought 2 different SIM cards at once, to check how they work.
Purchase a SIM card from a local mobile carrier in Singapore can be literally at every turn. To purchase you need will show a passport. I took one SIM card at the airport, the second in the network minimarket 7-eleven.
All rates are the same and start at 12-15 SGD (562-702 rubles) for 100 GB of traffic for 7 days and 500 minutes of local calls. Therefore, by Largely no matter what to buy. 100 GB is enough for you eyes, with all the desire you can not spend.
Sim cards always come in 3 sizes: nano, micro and mini. Squeeze the one you need. Also in every envelope with Simka is an instruction where the access point is written, if suddenly Something will go wrong and the phone will not be able to connect with network.
