Plan & hardware recommendation.

Thinking of cancelling my unifi air.

What's a comparable alternative, in terms of speed & data quota? Something which can cater to my appetite for data, as I sail the high-sea quite frequently..

Coverage notwithstanding, would like to hear opinions from fellas here. Opinions for a new plan & new hardware, if possible.

Preferably no contract, as I may be relocating abroad within the next 24 months. That's the one that's stopping me from getting unifi fiber tbh.

Thanks.

Quick PCR test in KL/Selangor area.

Anyone got suggestions on where to get quick PCR test in KV area?

Preferably results in less than 24 hours.

Most of the places I check gives 24-36 hours time frame, which is quite inconvenient if you need to submit your application & get permission to travel within 48 hours before flight.

Need recommendations - op7t pro vs op8t

Need secondary phone. But split between these two.

7T pro McLaren
-Motorized front camera, "cleaner" display within hole or notch. Mechanical moving parts which might be point of failure.
-But a year older, one year less android support. Comes with android 10 by default.
-Limited 5g support. Only N41 & N71 iinm.
-Cheaper
-Snapdragon 855+ (12/256)

8
-more 5g support
-more expensive
-comes with android 11 by default. And since its newer, its an extra upgrade or support from oneplus. Supposedly.
-no moving parts, so less mechanical failure.
-Snapdragon 865 (12/256)

Opinions, anyone?
