“To fully enjoy Smart’s blazing fast 4G LTE network, users need 3 key elements: SPD—an LTE-ready SIM, an LTE-covered Place, and an LTE-capable Device,” said PLDT-Smart VP & Head of Consumer Business Market Development Oscar Enrico Reyes, Jr. “Starmobile’s devices helps us bring our best services closer to even more Filipinos thanks to their affordable prices.”

The Power of 4

Smart LTE is present in 4 frequency bands across the Philippines:

• Band 2100MHz
• Band 1800MHz
• Band 850MHz
• Band 700MHz

Similar to an FM Radio, users can only “tune-in” or connect to LTE if their device is compatible with the correct bands. If a city, barangay, or a mall, for example, has the strongest LTE presence on 2100MHz, a 2100MHz-compatible LTE device will be able to maximize the network’s capabilities in that area. Non-compatible devices, may still be able connect to LTE via other bands, but the experience may not be similar.

Smart leads the way in the deployment of 850MHz and 700MHz which offer the widest coverage and superior indoor penetration due to its low frequency.

“Having all 4 of Smart’s LTE bands compatible with the Starmobile UP Prime, FeatureSmart Evo 1, and UP Selfie ensures that our users can watch HD movies, play online games, or stream songs seamlessly wherever Smart’s LTE network is present,” said Balderrama. “No other phone brand can offer the same value.”
