StarHub is one of the most popular telco providers in Singapore, selling SIM-only mobile and fibre broadband plans. Although their plans tend to be on the more expensive side, they make up for it with quality hardware, reliable performance, and bonus inclusions.
Before we get into the best StarHub fibre broadband plans, here’s a look at every StarHub internet plan available. Any fibre broadband plans with green ‘Deal’ text indicate a current StarHub promo.
Which StarHub fibre broadband speed is best?
Broadband plans in Singapore are among the fastest in the world, and according to third-party testing by OpenSignal, StarHub has the fastest upload speeds and second-fastest download speeds out of all five providers tested.
All broadband internet connections in Singapore are suitable for emails, web browsing, social media and online gaming. 3 or 5Gbps speeds should be more than enough for most households, but particularly heavy users and bigger households could find 10Gbps beneficial.
Here are some other common uses for different StarHub fibre broadband internet speeds in Singapore:
- 3Gbps: Multiple 4K streams, extremely fast file transfers, multiple game streams, seamless cloud interaction and small business-grade internet speeds.
- 5Gbps: All of the above, separate personal/work internet, medium business-grade internet speeds.
- 10Gbps: All of the above, enterprise-grade internet speeds.
Use the speed test tool below to determine your internet connection speed from StarHub (or any other broadband provider).
