Anyone here using Singtel's iPhone with M1 or Starhub SIM card? Any issues? What will be missing as compared to using that from Singtel? Can still access Internet?

I don't have iPhone. But I think nothing will be missing. SG has the law that mobile manufacturer cannot lock their phone to limit the use on specific telecom.

No issues. As Bro S2S1, no unlocked phone can be sold here.

The only issue is that iPhone is unlike Nokia phones that support auto-config. It means for MMS, APN surfing, etc must be set everytime a different SIM card is used. With v3, MMS setting is also a bit hassle to config.

Thanks bros. I think I'll just use my old M1 number with the new iphone. It seems a few people have used the combo without much problem, except when it came to tethering. Just need to add Sun Surf Max to my existing plan. Sighhh ... the effects of monopolisation.

I think he typo. Only unlocked phone can be sold by telecom here, to avoid unfair competence.
