StarHub Unveils Cloud Gaming on Samsung’s Galaxy S22 Series 5G

StarHub has unveiled an exclusive deal for customers, pairing the latest Samsung Galaxy S22 Series 5G smartphones with blazing 5G speeds to power super smooth gaming on the cloud.

With every pre-order or purchase of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Series 5G (Galaxy S22 5G, S22+ 5G, and S22 Ultra 5G) on any Mobile+ plan from today, customers can enjoy a six-month GeForce NOW Powered by StarHub subscription worth S$119.94 at no additional cost, unlocking instant access to top PC titles such as Apex Legends, Destiny 2, and Rocket League on their mobile devices.

StarHub is the only operator in Southeast Asia that offers the GeForce NOW cloud gaming service, which is enormously popular in the region, with subscribers in Singapore and overseas. GeForce NOW Powered by StarHub is hosted exclusively on GameHub+, StarHub’s dedicated platform for gamers.

Without the need for huge storage space, StarHub customers can enjoy over 1,000 different game titles on GeForce NOW with their new Galaxy S22 Series 5G. Cloud gaming is unparalleled on the Galaxy S22 Series 5G with its crystal-clear display and support for Dolby Atmos.

The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra 5G is powered by a 5,000 mAh fast-charging battery. This massive battery capacity and its refuelling prowess makes worry-free gaming a reality, allowing gamers to level up faster and further. In-built with Game Booster, customers will be also able to optimise battery and memory use, and their device’s temperature while gaming, allowing them to fine-tune their phones into winning machines. These, in combination with StarHub’s ultra-responsive 5G service and NVIDIA’s RTX servers (deployed at StarHub), enables fluid gameplay, giving customers the most immersive gaming experience on-the-go.

Above matching what competitors have in quantity, we want to provide value that is exclusive and unique to our customers, and today, this comes in the form of effortless fun, delivered to the palm of their hands,” said Donovan Kik, Vice President, Hardware Business, StarHub. “GeForce NOW Powered by StarHub is the perfect accompaniment to the Samsung Galaxy S22 Series 5G, allowing our customers to truly experience the power of StarHub 5G through on-demand gaming. Guided by DARE+, we are raising the bar for entertainment and meeting growing customers’ needs and wants with even bolder services that are unmatched in the market.”

Game on with GeForce NOW together with Samsung's ultimate power and performance of our Galaxy S22 Series 5G," said Sarah Chua, Vice President (Internet & Mobile), Samsung Electronics Singapore.

The Galaxy S22 Ultra 5G is the perfect unification of ultra-performance and Note Experience with the inbuilt S-pen while the Galaxy S22+ and S22 phones deliver the same cutting-edge performance with a common display and processor as the Galaxy S22 Ultra 5G. The camera arrays of the Galaxy S22 Series 5G offer unrivalled photo and video quality now optimised for Night Shooting. Powered by the latest 4nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SOC, the devices deliver high throughput and low latency, enabling supercharged performance, super-fast browsing, smooth streaming of 4K videos, high-definition video calls and an EPIC gaming experience. 5G Standalone and Wifi 6 support ensures high speed, low-latency connectivity.

Customers on StarHub 5G enjoy massive connectivity for gaming, streaming, surfing, video calling and more. The service currently covers more than 75% of Singapore, and with the company’s freshly secured 2.1GHz wireless spectrum rights, StarHub 5G is on track to reach nationwide coverage this year.

Apart from the Samsung Galaxy S22 Series (Galaxy S22 5G, S22+ 5G, and S22 Ultra 5G), customers who pre-order or purchase the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 5G lineup (S8, S8+ and S8 Ultra) will also enjoy the six-month GeForce NOW subscription at no extra cost.
