Consumers in Metro Manila can now experience improved mobile connectivity as Smart Communications Inc. (Smart), the wireless subsidiary of PLDT Inc., continues to expand and enhance its mobile network.
The rollout includes new 4G/LTE and 5G sites, as well as upgrades to existing sites in key cities such as Manila, Taguig, Valenzuela, Makati, Pasig and Quezon City.
“Our ramped-up network rollout and enhancement initiatives are key to delivering unmatched customer satisfaction through superior connectivity, accelerating business growth while reinforcing our dedication to nation-building, driving progress, and shaping the country’s digital future,” Smart chief operating officer Anastacio Martirez said over the weekend.
Smart’s value brand TNT has also introduced “TNT 5G Max” in Bonifacio Global City and surrounding areas, offering faster speeds and more reliable connectivity through 5G technology.
Selected boosts
To meet the growing demand for seamless connectivity during events, Smart has boosted its 5G coverage in major venues such as the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City, the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City and the Philippine Arena in Bulacan.
During events like the PBA Finals and concerts by international artists, Smart’s 5G network delivered download speeds up to 10 times faster than competitors, with speeds exceeding 200 Mbps reported at the MoA Arena.
