SunStar + April 30, 2021 PLDT wireless unit Smart Communications Inc. forges on with the nationwide rollout of its commercial 5G service as it expands the country's most extensive 5G network to over 2,600 sites nationwide. This comes as Smart unveils its most powerful 5G offering dubbed “Unli 5G” and ramps up its 5G outdoor coverage in the National Capital Region to more than 90 percent. These developments come on the heels of Smart’s recognition for having the fastest 5G network in the Philippines by Ookla, the global leader in internet testing and analysis. Based on consumer-initiated tests taken using Speedtest by Ookla, Smart has consistently posted the fastest 5G speeds for Q1 2021, with median download speeds of 190 Mbps, more than double the competition's speeds for the same period.
