Hello. I'm Senri from MNP Gypsy (laughs)
Until the other day, the main smartphone (Galaxy S10+) was using Rakuten Mobile's rate plan "Rakuten UN-LIMIT VI".
I can not complain because I could apply the campaign and use it for free for one year, but now that one year later, the monthly average of consumption packets exceeds 4G, the fee is 2,178 yen, and I do not feel so much advantageous.
So, I am very sorry to Mr. Rakuten, but I decided to MNP to the following New Rate Plan "My So", which was released from March of this year.
The details of this plan are as follows, and instead of being in extremely slow mode (32Kbps) during weekday lunch hours (Monday to Friday from 12:00 to 13:00), the rest of the time, there are unlimited packets with a speed limit of 1.5 Mbps.*It is a plan that can be used for.
* If the number of gigas consumed in the last 3 days exceeds 10GB, it will temporarily be extremely slow. (The speed limit can be lifted only at 24H with a charge of 330 yen per time)
In my case, I'm sleeping during the daytime, and when I'm at home, I don't connect to W-Fi and don't play online games, so I thought that this plan was the perfect plan for me, so I decided on MNP to Myneo.
Since Mineo is an MVNO that I used before, this MNP will be re-moved in.
My Sora's 1.5Mbps plan is the following impressions of using it for a week.
・ Browsing the web may be a little sly, but it is not a level to be worried about
Youtube and Spotify viewing is no problem
・ Downloading the app takes a little time, but there is no problem with the download
As mentioned above, I did not feel any particular problems. Os updates, app updates, and large file downloads can be operated more smoothly with a Wi-Fi connection.
Therefore, if you have a Wi-Fi environment and are not used during the daytime, I think that this plan is overwhelmingly high in COSPA among MNO and a number of MVMO.
If you are dissatisfied with the speed limit of this plan, I was planning to consider changing to a plan with a basic data capacity of 5 GB (1518 yen per month) of Mineo, but as a result of the trial, there was no particular problem, so I will continue to use it as it is.
In addition, in addition to the Rakuten Link app that can make free calls, the answering machine function provided for free (useful for iPhone users), you can use it for 0 yen if you consume a bucket of 1 GB or less, Rakuten Mobile is still difficult to throw away, so for the iPhone 7 below, I re-signed up with Rakuten Mobile (Rakuten UN-LIMIT VI) and as a replacement for a fixed phone with a constant Wi-Fi connection, I decided to operate it.
As a result, despite having two cars, the smartphone fee for a month is now 990 yen of the cheap price!
P.S. It is the number of days the SIM arrived from the MNP application on the Web, but Since Mineo was 4 days and Rakuten Mobile was 2 days, all these procedures were completed within a week.
2022.05.13 Addendum
Rakuten Mobile announced a new communication plan for smartphones "Rakuten UN-LIMIT VII" announced on May 13th, ending the conventional charge form that could be used for 0 yen up to 1GB per month, and monthly fee for up to 3GB It will be 1078 yen (tax included).
Therefore, Rakuten Mobile has decided to cancel at the end of October (substantially free of charge with Rakuten points redemption until this month) because it cannot be used for 0 yen.
As an alternative, we are considering changing to "povo 2.0".
SCN's Hikari Economy Course (2,728 yen including tax)
Since the optical cable of SCN (Shonan Cable Network) has already been installed, the ISP was changed from OCN optical apartment (3,960 yen including tax) to SCN Hikari's economy course (2,728 yen including tax, free Wi-Fi router, construction fee free). Now you can use the Internet at a low price.
2022.08.27 Update
After that, due to various circumstances, the main unit (Galaxy S10+) was MNP to IIJmio and the sub unit (iPhone 7) to Povo 2.0 as follows.
