Now that DiGi has introduced brand new DG SmartPlan postpaid plans that are all equipped with 4G LTE connectivity (finally), it looks like you will be able to sign up for a device bundle for those plans as well. The telco has recently updated its device bundle page, offering devices from Samsung, Sony, Motorola and more that are tied to the new DG SmartPlan 50/78/108/148 postpaid plans.
Just a little refresher, the new postpaid plans are now more affordable, starting from only RM50 a month and if you’re a heavy user, you can opt to have up to 6GB of data every month (SmartPlan 148).
The new SmartPlan options are only applicable for devices offered by DiGi that are tied to a 12- or 24-month contract Motorola Moto G, Alcatel One Touch Scribe Easy, Huawei Ascend G510, Samsung Galaxy Note III, Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro, Samsung Galaxy S4 (non-LTE), Sony Xperia C, Sony Xperia Z Ultra (LTE), and Sony Xperia Z1. The breakdowns of the prices are as follows:
It’s quite strange how DiGi is doing things this time round, while SmartPlan 50 looks very attractive with 2GB free for you to use (not split into mobile internet and smart apps quota), it’s very strange because the device bundles offered for this plan ties users down to a 12 months contract but is offering them at retail price, i.e. the Samsung Galaxy Note III is retailing at RM2,399 and if you sign up for a 1 year contract with DiGi under SmartPlan 50, you will need to pay RM2,399 plus an advance payment of RM50 – that’s more expensive than heading to a Samsung store to buy the Note III off the shelf.
In addition to that, not all devices offered by DiGi come with the new SmartPlan plans, some of them that are not tied to a contract are still under the old SmartPlan (SmartPlan 58/88) but hey, there’s no contract so you can sign up for those and change your plans anytime you want.

who will b so bodo to buy at rrp and contract 12mth.digi ceo ox putted at lutut.
Not sure what’s the point bundling a Moto G when it doesn’t even support LTE
Are they trying to fool the people that have no idea of the RRP and tie them up with 12 months contract?
DiGi has become a big conglomerate and don’t know how to compete anymore. The call rates are good but LTE coverage and phone bundles are poor. The price is a disappointment. Even if I change SIM card with new plan, DiGi will charge for new SIM. It shows when their managers are just doing their job. Have fun with DiGi
no free lunch in this world,
I hope a bigger company like GOOGLE or other company will opt in so that will be an free internet service will be provided so that more people will use their services. correct me if I are wrong Its just came while I thinking why this happen.
1. internet not like water/food they wont deprived/out of stock or need to be process first. Once you put the equipment, you have satellite ,etc you done its like it always have data connection. I just don’t understand why there are 1gb,2gb fucking 5gb plan with huge different cash. Did they pay monthly too someone? Just make a plan rm30 for 5gb that so reasonable. again correct me if I were wrong.
2. Data with any Carrier are just too wrong after heard google balloon project.
3. A plan bundle with device are so wrong for lots people. too expensive! Meant for higher class people but yet again its still expensive!
