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 green ‘Deal’ text shows a current M1 mobile promotion.

Our top overall pick, the 5G SIM Only 300GB plan, also happens to be the best plan for minutes. Not only does it come with 1,100 minutes (and 1,100 SMS), it also includes unlimited calls to three selected M1 numbers. If you're particularly chatty, you can also add unlimited minutes to your plan, however this does increase the monthly price from below $20 per month to over $60 per month.

As all M1 postpaid plans are bespoke, you can get unlimited data with any SIM-only, Bespoke Flexi or Bespoke Contract plan, but it will cost you. Take our top overall pick, the 5G Sim Only 300GB plan. It's only $17.95 per month with no contract, but adding unlimited data brings the monthly bill to $107.93. Although we think 300GB is more than enough for most people, if you're really set on unlimited data that won't break the bank, we recommend considering Singtel, MyRepublic (which also runs on the M1 network) or CMLink.
