Smart recorded a total of 39.5 million mobile data users by the end of June 2021, up by 6.1 million compared to the same period last year. In comparison, Globe fell short as it recorded 38.6 million mobile data users by the end of June 2021.

MORE FILIPINOS CHOOSE SMART FOR ITS SUPERFAST MOBILE NETWORK SPEED

This growth could be attributed to the telco’s effort in providing its subscribers with the fastest mobile network in the country.

Ookla recently named Smart as the country’s fastest mobile network for the fourth consecutive year, based on an analysis of tests taken with Speedtest. Ookla’s latest report also showed that Smart has the fastest 5G network in the Philippines, covering the first half of 2021.

Other significant awards were also given to Smart, as several independent bodies recognized their fastest network.
