LTE, short for Long Term Evolution, is a technology that allows your device to process high-speed data and content. Compared to a 3G signal, LTE can let you download files faster with speeds of up to 42 Mbps. It also offers less buffer time when streaming music and video. With thrice the speed of 3G, LTE offers Globe customers a better surfing experience and enables Filipinos to live a more enriched digital life just by upgrading their SIMs and devices.  

Currently, Globe is undergoing the steady expansion of its LTE coverage and capacities to improve the mobile experience of its customers. By staying connected online, Filipinos can move away from simple calls and texts and use mobile data to enjoy richer communication through more vivid content, as well as apps that can help them in their daily activities.
