If you haven’t been following the news, here’s something new for you: MyRepublic, a local company, is bidding to be the fourth telecom in Singapore. A while back, they announced that they were interested to provide unlimited data in their data plan, and Singaporeans rejoice.

Now, the numbers are out.

In its latest announcement, the promise is that for an unlimited data plan, it will cost about $80 a month, and existing customers of their broadband service will get it at a 25% discount—that is about $60 a month.

In addition to that, its basic plan of 2GB data plan will be at an affordable $8—with each excess GB used at $8. Just like its unlimited plan, existing customers would get 25% discount.

Looking at just data plan alone (that means it’s not your typical smartphone plan but those catered for devices that just use data, like tablets or mobile broadband), Singtel’s highest data plan is 10GB at $49.90 StarHub’s one is 11GB at $51 while M1’s one is 11GB at $50.90.

But now, let’s face it: 10GB used to be enough, but with so many apps requiring data, it’s no longer relevant.

There were, of course, skepticisms: according to a Today report, telecommunications analyst Foong King-Yew believed that this “could be very far away from the actual package that they would launch”.

Obviously, what’s interesting is how this will affect the industry altogether—would all other telecoms follow suit to retain their customers? If so, that would mean just one thing: unlimited data is coming. Price war is always good for consumers.

If you watch at least 10 minutes of brain rot content daily, you must know this:
