In the local telecom industry, Globe outpaced its major competitor listed at 5 mbps. Together the two companies’ combined LTE speed brought the Philippine country ranking to 8 mbps, still comparable to that of Qatar, South Africa, Ecuador and Thailand.

Pointing out that majority of the company’s 48.4 million mobile customers are now using smartphones, Yoly Crisanto, Globe Senior Vice President for Corporate Communications said, “These findings prove our success in continuously expanding our network capacities amid ever-increasing demand for high-speed mobile internet access as more and more of our customers build their life and work experiences around a digital lifestyle.”
