#SmarterDavao: Better, Faster Internet, Freebies & Gadget Fair
PRESS RELEASE - PLDT-Smart welcomes change in the country’s biggest city with Connected Davao, the first digital event of its kind in Davao City. More than an exhibition, Connected Davao at SM Lanang on October 15-16 will showcase the latest products and services from PLDT and Smart and celebrate that Davao City is now an LTE-covered city.
Smart is also hosting two retail events on October 15-16 at Gaisano Mall and NCCC.
Connected Davao is a digital convergence that features experiential zones where subscribers can get to experience PLDT-Smart’s products, services and innovations firsthand. There will also be a selling area where the public can look at the best deals and bundles available. A highlight of the event is the Digital Discussions where the region’s top influencers and business owners will talk about how PLDT and Smart help them pursue their passions.
The event also highlights Smart’s full LTE rollout in Davao City. Smart LTE enables you to surf the net in ultrafast speeds of up to 42 mbps! That’s six times as fast as 3G.
“With Smart LTE, everything is in high definition and real time – videos, games, photos, music and even video calls,” said Katrina Luna-Abelarde, Head of Wireless Consumer Operations for Smart.
“Because Smart has more cell sites in Davao City than any other network, subscribers will have the best mobile experience ever. They can watch videos on YouTube, update their friends on Snapchat and Instagram and communicate via messaging apps faster and more efficiently,” added Luna-Abelarde.
