SMART LTE: My Smart Evolution Experience

April 23, 2011

I gave you a preview before of what Smart LTE  or Smart Evolution is all about. I also shared with you how happy I am that SMART has asked me to be one of the first to use its prototype LTE USB dongle from HUAWEI. They are pre-launching this 4G technology in Boracay where I am currently doing my soul searching. Since I am mostly online during my regular waking hours, plus I’ve been a loyal customer of Smart since 1999 I figured, it would really be a great honor to be the first of its users.

A little background info here:

4G is an advertising/marketing term used by companies who promote services using technologies better than 3G. See Wikipedia for more technical info.

Right now,  SMART  3G towers are easily upgraded to accommodate LTE (long term evolution) bringing 50Mbps of internet speed, and soon, LTE Advanced to bring 100Mbps  of internet speed. 4G enabled phones will be released to access this kind of super data network. But for now, I have the dongle (which also runs on Snow Leopard) to enjoy and make the most out of.
