Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for facilitating network slice based reselection using machine learning are disclosed herein. An example method for wireless communication at a UE includes predicting a next active PDU session of two or more PDU sessions based on next connection setup times for each PDU session. The next connection setup times may be estimated based on connection setup events occurring over a period. The example method also includes selecting a frequency channel to camp on based on the next active PDU session.
