How We Test
How We Test & Review Mobile Phones
Our complete process for testing devices, verifying prices and producing accurate, trustworthy content for Singapore readers.
Who We Are
MobilePricesSG Singapore is an independent mobile technology publication dedicated to helping Singapore consumers find accurate smartphone prices, honest reviews and practical buying advice. We are not affiliated with any manufacturer, carrier or retailer.
Our editorial team is led by Marcus Lim, a Senior Mobile Technology Writer with 8+ years of experience covering the Singapore and Southeast Asia mobile market. Every piece of content published on MobilePricesSG goes through a strict editorial process before it reaches our readers.
Our Core Commitment
We are committed to publishing content that is accurate, up to date and genuinely useful — with no hidden agendas, paid placements or undisclosed sponsorships influencing our editorial decisions.
How We Verify Prices
Price accuracy is the foundation of everything we do at MobilePricesSG. Here is exactly how we source and verify every price listed on our website.
All prices are sourced directly from the official manufacturer website — for example, apple.com/sg for iPhone models. We never rely on third-party or aggregator data as a primary source.
We cross-reference prices against Singapore’s major authorised retailers — Singtel, StarHub, M1, Harvey Norman and Courts — to ensure consistency and flag any promotions or discounts.
All Singapore prices published on MobilePricesSG are confirmed to be GST-inclusive (9% GST as of 2026), so readers know the exact amount they will pay at checkout.
Prices are reviewed and updated regularly — especially after major product launches, promotional periods and carrier plan changes. Every article displays a clear “Last Updated” date.
If a reader spots a price discrepancy, we investigate and correct it within 24 hours. Accuracy is our highest editorial priority.
