    Three major carriers - pretty much all the same except for special plans / offers that are available randomly.

    - PCCW
    - Three
    - Smartone

    They all have a wide range of plans - no one has a single plan that suits everyone. Best to browse around and figure out what you want when you get here and have your ID card sorted.

    Smartone have 2 year contracts, thats why I will need a prepaid
    But I want a 4g prepaid if possible and I think Smartone are the only ones to do one.

    Unless someone knows a provider who does 4g on a 12 month plan ?

    If you already have the phone you can get 12 months on sim only.
