GLOBE Telecoms now offersoffer Globe Mobile Broadband 3G with HSDPA.
It is better and more powerful than 3G. On top of the regular 3G services like Video Call and Multimedia Streaming, HSDPA allows for high-speed Internet browsing of up to 1.4 Mbps (megabits/second), with peaks of up to 1.8 Mbps – rather than the previous 384 kbps (kilobits/second) available on 3G. With an HSDPA data card for example, browsing the Internet on your laptop will be up to 25 times faster than dial-up speeds.
From being the first in the Philippines to offer GSM/SMS, Video Call, and Video IDD, Globe is now the 1st mobile network operator in the Asia Pacific region to have deployed a commercial HSDPA service!
Globe has simultaneously launched 3G and a technology called High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA), also known as 3.5G. Globe Mobile Broadband integrates these two technologies and Globe now offers this to its subscribers. This technology drastically increases the download speeds of 3G networks, delivering speeds of up to 1.4 Mbps with peaks of up to 1.8 Mbps – rather than the maximum 384 kilobits/sec. offered by regular 3G.
From May 5 till May 7, GLOBE is offering zero interest plans on their Nokia N70, Well of course, they need to make it affordable so that 3 G services can be availed.
