SMART 5G began to roll out last year and its coverage continues to grow in other areas. Instead of roaming around to look for a 5G signal, SMART partnered with Waze to show where subscribers can enjoy SMART 5G speeds. It becomes the first Philippine telco to introduce SMART 5G pins on the social navigation app.
Through this groundbreaking feature, SMART 5G pins will conveniently show up on the Waze app so subscribers may know if they are on a SMART 5G-covered area, or close to a SMART 5G site where they can access and enjoy next-level speeds on their SMART 5G-certified smartphone. This unique feature is now available for Waze users in Metro Manila and key areas in the provinces of Aklan, Bulacan, Cavite, Cebu, Davao del Sur, Iloilo, Laguna, and Pampanga, with
more locations to be added soon.

The next evolution of wireless communications, 5G offers significantly faster speeds and ultra-low latency, making it possible to stream ultra-HD videos without buffering, download and upload heavy files in seconds, and play high-bandwidth games without lag. It also provides a new platform that will unlock possibilities for groundbreaking digital experiences and services.
As part of its ongoing nationwide rollout, Smart has fired up more than 1,400 5G sites across the country – the most extensive coverage in the Philippines. Smart is also planning to grow its 5G base stations by over 3,800 this year. SMART 5G recently went live in Benguet, Misamis Oriental, and Zamboanga Sibugay.
