Not always, it really depends on what you’re looking for. SIM-only plans come with a high degree of flexibility as you aren’t locked into any minimum contract periods, but they often exclude handsets so you have to provide your own. Other providers such as StarHub, do have decent discounts for long term contracts (e.g. 12 and 24-months). It’s best to also do your research on the outright cost of a handset when choosing a plan because it could be just as affordable to sign up for a long term contract as buy a phone outright and get a SIM-only plan alongside.
