Smart Bro Rocket Plug-It now official, available Monday

We were the first to break the news last week about the new Smart Bro Rocket 12Mbps so we followed it up with Smart today.

It’s now official and you can get the prepaid SmartBro Rocket for Php3,995 (no lock-in period but is locked to the Smart network).

Yugatech 728x90 Reno7 Series


You should also see this poster in stores where it’s available.

Internet rates starts at Php10 per 30 minutes and you can just use the normal loading system. The Smart Bro Rocket will be available for sale at Smart Business Centers starting Monday. Remember though, there are only about 154 HSPA+ sites across the country (Metro Manila, Cebu, Davao, etc) so don’t expect it to reach 12Mbps anywhere else.

Note: You can check the complete list of Smart HSPA+ sites here.

    I’ve been using this everyday since August, and i’m getting consistent speeds between 2mbps to a high of 6mbps on a good day. Unlisurf still works for me (50 pesos whole day, 200 pesos 5 days). On the status, it connects as HSPA, but there were a few times when I saw it connect as HSPA+. DL speeds are fast, skype is really good. Sites known for heavy bandwidth consumption are throttled down unfortunately (eg youtube, torrent). Hope the unlisurf sticks para sulit.

    I recently bought SmartBro Rocket Plug-it and I’m happy to say that VPN would work with your rocket plugit! HOWEVER, when you follow your VPN provider’s information on connecting to the network you will get the speed of normal smart plug it. see… because the original profile of smartbro for rocket plug it has an APN of “smartbro” versus the APN suggested of VPN providers which is “internet”. The access point is different and probably the reason why surfing on APN-internet is slower compared to the default Rocket-APN
