Amid its continued network roll-out, PLDT wireless subsidiary Smart Communications, Inc. maintained its lead in LTE speeds nationwide, according to the latest report by wireless coverage research firm OpenSignal.
OpenSignal also cited a “big increase” in the availability of Smart LTE compared to six months ago, improving by 12 percentage points to 52.71%.
“Smart held onto OpenSignal’s 4G speed award with an average download of 10.6 Mbps, increasing slightly over the last six months," OpenSignal said in its report released yesterday. “By virtue of the big increase in its availability score, Smart was able to deliver its faster LTE connections to customers more often,” it added.
