Connect and create to win the new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 5G phone by making a TikTok with a new effect with your friends and family.

Introducing the #PowerUpwithSingtel5G challenge: From Jan. 3 to Jan. 24, 2022, TikTok users can create a drawing together with a friend or family member that best illustrates their connection using the new Paint Portal Brush effect.

The drawing could represent cherished moments such as pizza nights, movie marathons, hiking, or other shared interests and hobbies that strengthen the connection between the both of you.

Besides a smoother overall experience on Singtel’s 5G network, Singtel customers can gain access to an exclusive brush colour when using the effect.

How do I join the challenge?

Grab a friend or family member who has a separate TikTok account from yours on a different device and make sure the both of you follow each other.

Using one device, scan the following QR code in the TikTok app by going to Profile>Settings and Privacy>QR Code.

Paint Portal Brush Effect

The Paint Portal Brush Effect is Singapore's first 5G-connected AR effect developed by Singtel in partnership with TikTok.

While non-5G users are able to use the effect as well, Singtel 5G users enjoy a smoother experience while connecting through their shared creations on Singtel’s 5G network.

Besides a smoother online experience, Singtel users will also gain access to an exclusive brush colour when using the effect.
