The Ayala-led telecommunications company, Globe Telecom, has announced that its entire network is now equipped with 4G HSPA+.

The telecom giant has just completed its 100% 4G HSPA+ rollout last month. Just last June, Globe Telecom became the first full 3G network in the Philippines.

“The Globe 4G HSPA+ network extends the company’s ability, as a telecommunications provider, to adequately serve high data usage of customers amid proliferation of bandwidth-intensive applications and growing preference for smartphones and other mobile devices,” Globe President & CEO Ernest Cu said.

Next in the pipeline is the improving the LTE network of the company. Globe and Alcatel Lucent are in partnership to expand the LTE-TDD and LTE-FDD footprint in Visayas and Mindanao. Aside from that, Globe is also testing out the latest in LTE technologies like LTE-CA and LTE-eMBMS that increases efficient utilization of frequencies and better streaming through LTE networks.

Daniel Morial Leave a comment

Samsung is launching an updated version of its current Galaxy flagship. This Galaxy S5 will pack the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 and will be called Samsung Galaxy S5 4G+.

To be launched in Singapore, the Galaxy S5 4G+ will be the first device to use the 4G LTE-Advanced service of Singtel which has a maximum speed of 300Mbps.

The new GS5 variant boasts a 2.5GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 CPU, a 5.1″ Full HD Super AMOLED display, 2GB of RAM and LTE Cat6. Perhaps this Galaxy S5 4G+ will be the global version of the LTE-A variants unlike its exclusive Korean LTE-A counterpart which has a QHD display paired with 3GB of RAM

Despite these changes, it is still a Galaxy S5 with the same fingerprint sensor, waterproof chassis, heart rate sensor and more. It will be available through SingTel’s plan from SG$0 to SG$688. We can also expect a Galaxy Alpha 4G+ by September.
