GOMO Sim Review, gives you 4,166 rounds of MLBB or Wild Rift for 25GB of no Expiry load

A new digital telco emerged on the internet by the name of GOMO PH or GOMO!. If you've been to Singapore, you probably heard of this name as it is one of the tourist sim by Singtel that you can avail at the airport. Although they have different logo designs, it is the same sim and it is now available in the Philippines under the Globe network. The new GOMO! sim will provide Filipinos with a new alternative mobile network that has a unique feature that our local telco cannot simply offer, "Data load that doesn't expire".

GOMO! sim is only for PHP 199 (Promo from PHP 299), it includes a FREE 25GB of load that you can use to surf the internet or play any games. When playing online games, the 25GB can take you up to 4,166 rounds of online games for MLBB or Wild Rift.

Unboxing

Packaging comes in not so ordinary paper, in a premium-like elastic envelope, printed with their moto and logos.

Inside, you'll get the sim packaging. As the packaging stated, this sim is 5G ready. Yep! If you're planning to get iPhone 12 in the future, this sim is compatible.

At the back, you can scan the QR code to download the GOMO! app. It also has a protected seal and a sticker indicating the expiration date. 

Comes in a cross-shaped packaging, it reveals the half-sized sim card tray with no other instruction manual. Just "Let's shake things up. Be free and just play. Get Ready.".

Similar with other sim card tray, the sim card comes in 3 pre-cut sizes: Standard Sim, Micro Sim and Nano Sim. 

Activating your GOMO! Sim

When the sim is inserted and already downloaded the GOMO! app, you can then enter your number for activation. If you have trouble looking for the number, it is printed behind the half-sized sim card tray. 

What's great with GOMO! is that, the app can be accessed it even you don't have load, meaning you can manage and check your data anytime you want.

Once activated, you'll automatically see your FREE 25GB load that doesn't expire. If you notice, the credits for calls and text are zero, you need to exchange your data to get credits for text and calls.

You can convert your data load by tapping the Mo Creds, and below are the list of promo that you can convert for text and calls.

  • 0.2 GB – 3 Mins to all networks
  • 0.2 GB – 30 Texts to all networks
  • 0.5 GB – 50 Texts + 5 Mins to all networks

Based from the non-combo conversion above, it cost you around PHP 0.79 per 1-minute call and about PHP 0.079 per text for all network.

Loadability

Unfortunately, purchasing a load for your GOMO! sim is pretty hard and you can only purchase loads online via GCash or Credit/Debit Card. As of the moment, purchasing a load from Tindahan is not yet possible. We will update this post once we've got info on that.

Currently, there are two promos available. 25GB for PHP 299; and 25GB + 500 Texts and 100 Mins for PHP 499. We recommend buying the PHP 299 as you'll get more GB in terms of costs by converting texts and calls than the latter.

In our calculation, you will be spending 11.96 PHP per GB.

Speed Test

This speed test is only helpful for our readers who are in General Santos. Since Globe is not that optimized in our area because of very few towers, getting an LTE signal is not that consistent. When you're too far from the cell towers or in an enclosed area, your signal may fluctuate switching back and forth from 3G+, 4G and LTE.

Anyway, here is the speed test results we've got.

Location Speed Result (Download/Upload)
SM City General Santos, Lagao (LTE) 35.7 Mbps / 2.92 Mbps
Narra Street, Lagao (LTE) 11.4 Mbps / 5.72 Mbps
Narra Street, Lagao, Inside Home (3G) 5.66 Mbps / 0.22 Mbps
Salazar Street, Dad. South (LTE) 38.29 Mbps / 16.26 Mbps
Salazar Street, Dad. South, Inside Home (LTE) 2.38 Mbps / 4.42 Mbps

Gaming

We will also cover the advantages of gaming using GOMO! Will the 25GB for PHP 299 worth it for gaming?

In our test using MOBA games like the Mobile Legends Bang Bang or League of Legends Wild Rift, each round takes about 4MB to 6MB. Now, if we translate that with 25GB of data, it will give you around 4,166 total of rounds for only PHP 299 (That's a year of playing). Of course, patch update and other data consuming app is not included in the calculation.

Comparing it with other plans by other telcos, around 299 pesos you only get 1GB per day for certain apps which is only valid for 30 days. And if you only use it solely for playing games, you will hardly consume those 30GB data and the GOMO! sim sounds the cheapest deal.

For connectivity, if you're connected in LTE/4G+ signal, you'll get good ping at around 60ms to 110ms which is pretty acceptable ping for Wild Rift and ML. Note, this will still depends on the strength of Globe signal in your area.

Setting up APN

The default APN that is set through your mobile data network is set to Globe internet APN. Although, this will work without a problem and the internet will still work. It is still best to use the recommended GOMO apn that are instructed in their FAQs section.

Depending on your phone, for android, you can set this at Connections > Mobile networks > Access Point Names > then Add. Fill up the APN with http.gomo.ph or gomo.ph and leave the username and password blank. Make sure to name it for reference.

For iOS, Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Network. From here, you need to fill up the Cellular Data APN to http.gomo.ph or gomo.ph. Leave the Username and Password blank.

Conclusion

The GOMO! sim is recommended for people who rarely go outside and want to have an internet with them without worrying of getting an expired load. For PHP 299 for 25GB, the no expiry features of this sim will benefit most of the gamers that plays online games which only consume a few MB and can play up to thousands of rounds. But for those people who are always surfing the internet, to play YouTube videos, Netflix, Spotify, calls and text, this sim might cost them even more because of non-existent of unlimited data promos.

If you're planning to purchase this sim, make sure you know how's the internet connection for Globe users in your area. As that will be the speed you'll be getting when have the GOMO!.

The sim card will still expire when there is no paid transaction has been made within one year. So, you need to top-up a load at least once a year to extend its life span.

GOMO! app is now available through Google Play and iOS App Store. You can purchase the sim for PHP 199 with FREE 25GB via their website (https://www.gomo.ph/), through the app or from online stores at Lazada or Shopee.

You can actually install Crysis 3 directly on RTX 3090 VRAM as Storage

Someone just installed Crysis 3 directly on their NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 VRAM using a software card VRAMdrive (GPU RAM Drive). And the result is outstanding, at a 4K very high settings, good FPS and super fast load.

NVIDIA's RTX 3090 has a total of 24GB or a usable of 20,434MB according to GPU-Z reports, in a Linux system you can utilize these VRAM as general purpose RAM disk. In Windows, there is available utility that is called GpuRamDrive that has the same function as in linux, it is now available at Github (https://github.com/prsyahmi/GpuRamDrive).

A user named @Strife212, posted his adventure on Twitter on how he installs Crysis 3 in his Graphics Card. Basically, he partitioned the available 24GB VRAM on RTX 3090 into two separate variants. 10GB VRAM for the graphics card and the remaining 15GB for the storage (Drive R:). Despite utilizing all of the VRAM, the GPU load still remains at 40% without hiccup. "At 4K very high settings get good fps and the game loads very fast – GPU-Z reports total VRAM use 20434MB", he said.

Since RTX 3090 is utilizing the PCIe 4.0, the load times of the games will be similar to an NVME M.2 SSD drive which gives up to 5GB/s read speed. The same technology used in PS5 and XBOX Series that enable their games to render in-game assets at real-time.

What do you think of this experiment? Will you take risk and try it when you get an RTX 3090? Or you're going to use it as a storage for storing secret files? Let us know in the comment section.


Ragnarok Player and beauty queen Megan Young is the newest Foodpanda endorser

The first Filipina who wins the Miss World title in the pageant's 63-year history and a gamer in Ragnarok M Eternal Love, Megan Young is the newest endorsers of Foodpanda.

But how exactly did Megan Young started playing video games when she's not busy being a beauty queen?

"I'd like to say that I was a gamer first, so, actually, the better question is How did a gamer become a beauty queen?" Young says, laughing. "I started gaming when I was pretty young. My parents introduced me to educational games, then, eventually, it developed into a love for recreational games."

She knows that some people may think she is not into gaming, or the only reason she's playing is because of her husband. But Megan has been playing video games since 90's, classic video games title like Mario Party, and Pokemon Snap on her Nintendo N64.

Since the lockdown started, Megan has been playing a lot of video games specifically Ragnarok M Eternal Love together with her husband and also a fellow gamer/foodpanda endorser, Mikael Daez.

"It's actually surprising because at some point in our relationship, we both realized that we're both into video games and that we've actually played these games even before we met each other," she says. "I remember when we first heard about Ragnarok coming to mobile, I was like 'I loved this game in high school!' and Mikael could not believe it because it was also a game he played back then."

Animal Crossing in Lockdown and FoodPanda

Since lockdown started, Megan also started spending time playing Animal Crossing on her Nintendo Switch. Since this game requires grinding and needs some refreshing foods, a recent favorite order of her from foodpanda is the steak burrito with cheese.

"Having foodpanda makes everything so much easier when you just want to have fun gaming," Young says. "I think it's always fun to have the food you love the most with you while gaming. It just makes the experience more exciting."

Megan also added that she and her husband are happy to be part of the foodpanda family, especially with how food and gaming go hand-in-hand. Saying its the perfect combination to go with their personalities.
