Smart has pushed ahead with the initial phase of its 5G commercial rollout, being the first provider in the country to power up its 5G sites in key locations in Visayas and Mindanao – select areas in Boracay, Cebu, Iloilo, and Davao.
These areas add to the list of locations with live Smart 5G sites in Metro Manila and also in New Clark City in Pampanga.
The company has also expanded its 5G service to cover all Smart Prepaid subscribers. This adds to the initial provision for all Smart Postpaid subscribers announced back in July. This step effectively makes it simpler for more Filipinos to experience faster data speeds using Smart 5G-certified devices with 5G-activated SIMs.

To enable more subscribers to experience 5G, Smart teamed up with popular smartphone manufacturers like Huawei, Samsung, realme, and vivo in offering more 5G-ready devices at Smart Stores nationwide and on the Smart Online Store.
Subscribers can also experience 5G first-hand at select Smart Stores in Metro Manila.
