PLDT’s wireless subsidiary Smart Communications Inc. (Smart) is upgrading the 5G experience for ordinary Filipinos through its value mobile brand TNT with the launch of 5G Max — a boosted network experience that delivers faster speeds and more reliable connectivity for subscribers. A big step toward TNT’s thrust to bring the many benefits of 5G technology to the masses, the TNT 5G Max experience is initially available at the Bonifacio Global City (BGC) in Taguig City and its surrounding areas – a bustling area of people from all walks of life, including office workers, college students, entrepreneurs, and tourists, among others.
Powered by TNT 5G Max, subscribers can experience seamless connectivity as they go about their daily online activities like upload and download heavy files instantly, staying active on their productivity apps, streaming their favorite shows in ultra-high definition without interruption,and play high-bandwidth mobile games without lag. “Ramdam ko talaga ang bilis ng TNT sa Taguig kasi di ako nag-la-lag sa app. Mahalaga ito sa trabaho ko bilang rider para tuluy-tuloy ang biyahe,” said Aaron Blanquera, 39, a ride-hailing app driver who has been a TNT user for two years now. “Mahilig talaga ako mag-FB at TikTok tuwing break, at napansin ko na mas mabilis nang mag-load ang videos sa phone ko,” said Krissian Levi Sindico, 28, who works in a BPO company in Taguig and has been a TNT user for five years. “TNT 5G Max strengthens our mission of bringing ‘saya’ to the masses powered by the latest innovations. We look forward to rolling this out to more areas across the country so more Filipinos can benefit from our superior 5G experience. It will be simply amazing,” said Smart First Vice President and Group Head for TNT Lloyd R. Manaloto.
To mark this milestone, TNT hosted a grand event entitled "TNT 5G MAX Masaya!" last November 29, 2024 at Market! Market! which featured exciting activities at interactive booths called ‘SAYA 5G Zones’ which showcase TNT 5G Max’s fast and reliable connectivity. These booths comprised of an Unli 5G and Turbo ML Station for mobile gamers, the Saya All TikTok Station for those who love content creation, the Huawei Robot Dog and AI Avatar Station, and an Upgrade Station where guests easily switched or upgraded to a TNT 5G SIM and topped up with the TNT’s value-packed data offers. The event also featured Joshua Garcia in a meet-and-greet session with fans and a star-studded concert with performances by Mimiyuuuh, Darren Espanto, Jackie Gonzaga, KZ Tandingan and Lola Amour . Darren and Alexa Ilacad hosted the event which included prize giveaways such as smartphones, tablets and HUAWEI fitness bands. “At TNT, we believe 5G should be accessible to everyone. That’s why we’re bringing 5G for All, allowing our customers to enjoy 5G connectivity even with our Panalo Load offers starting at just Php10. We’re also excited to launch TNT’s most affordable 5G phone, priced below Php4,000, making the benefits of 5G more accessible than ever. This is also our way of showing our gratitude to our customers who continue to make TNT the Philippines’ biggest mobile brand,” said Manaloto.
