Globe Telecom Inc. said Wednesday it expanded 5G coverage to more than 1,800 key locations all over the country as of July.
“With the different challenges we are facing right now, coverage contiguity is our top priority. To do this, we need to maximize the locations of our 5G network builds that we have right now. These strategic installations will eventually lead to more practical and viable rollouts in the coming months,” said Globe senior vice president Joel Agustin.
“We want to provide our customers with better experience with the latest technology and 5G capable devices as soon as possible,” he said.
5G is the latest wireless internet connectivity that promises faster speeds, higher bandwidth, and more stable internet connections compared to 4G. Globe said at least 94 percent of the National Capital Region now has Globe 5G outdoor coverage with Makati and Pateros with 100 percent coverage.
Marikina is second at 99 percent, followed by Taguig, Mandaluyong and Caloocan which are at 98 percent 5G coverage, while San Juan is at 97 percent.
