Smart fired up LTE in Tacloban City, where improved connectivity has helped journalists send breaking news from all over Tacloban, as well as kept drivers plying long routes to and from the new Tacloban terminal in touch with their families throughout their days.
Globe Telecom said it expanded its LTE coverage across the country by deploying additional 934 LTE sites using the 700MHz, 2600 MHz, and 1800 MHz frequencies in the first quarter of the year including Jolo, Tawi-Tawi, and Batanes.
