M1 may not have a network that’s as popular as Singtel, but it still competes with great value mobile plans. The same value is true when M1 is pitted against StarHub and SIMBA (formerly TPG) mobile plans. Primarily, M1 offers a base SIM-only plan that can be configured with bundle options. Alternatively, those after a phone can pair one with an M1 bespoke plan. Before scrolling to the full breakdown, here’s a look at some M1 mobile plans in our comparison engine. Note that the green ‘Deal’ text shows a current M1 mobile promotion.

If you're simply after the biggest data plan M1 offers, currently the 5G SIM Only 300GB plan takes the cake with a limited-time offer of 1TB data forever, plus unlimited data on weekends, 1,000 minutes and 1,000 messages, all for $17.95 per month (and just $14.95 per month for the first three months). Although we think 1TB is more than enough for most people, if you're after even more, we recommend considering an unlimited data plan.
