Which cellular company in Ho Chi Minh is the best?

Be sure you purchase your SIM card from one of Vietnam’s four main mobile networks: Mobile, Viettel, Vinaphone, or Vietnamobile. More than 95% of the domestic telecommunications market in the nation is represented by the leading three brands. The most recent and least expensive packages are now offered by Vietnamobile. However, the Vietnam mobile network only performs well in major cities like Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Danang. If you decide to go to additional areas of the nation, it is not a wise decision.
