Globe named PH’s Most Consistent 5G and Broadband Provider by Ookla (2H 2025)

Globe has secured multiple recognitions from Ookla® for the second half of 2025, earning titles as the Most Consistent Mobile Network, Most Consistent Fixed Network, and Widest 5G Coverage provider in the Philippines.

The awards are based on millions of user-initiated Speedtest® results analyzed by Ookla, a global authority in network intelligence and connectivity benchmarking. The recognition signals a shift in telco competition, from headline peak speeds to real-world reliability and user experience.

For Q3 to Q4 2025, Globe recorded a Mobile Consistency Score of 87.51%, while its Fixed Broadband Consistency Score reached 88.84% in Q4 2025. In addition, the company achieved the highest 5G Coverage Score in the country at 490, reflecting the breadth of its 5G deployment footprint.

Unlike raw peak speed metrics, consistency scores measure how often users experience minimum expected speed thresholds across different locations and conditions. In practice, this translates to fewer performance dips during video calls, streaming, cloud workloads, and online transactions.

Globe also reported year-on-year speed growth, with average mobile speeds reaching 34.8 Mbps (up 8%) and broadband speeds rising to 120.4 Mbps (up 36%). These benchmarks exceed the bandwidth typically required for common use cases such as 1080p video streaming (4–5 Mbps), HD video conferencing (~3 Mbps), and simultaneous multi-device usage in connected homes.

During a discussion at the PH Telco Summit, Globe leadership emphasized that reported coverage alone does not guarantee stable user experience especially in geographically isolated or disaster-prone areas. The company said it is focusing investments not just on expanding reach but on improving capacity, redundancy, and infrastructure resilience.

The recognitions reinforce Globe’s positioning around Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE), rather than purely marketing peak speeds. As digital activity intensifies across commerce, remote work, content creation, and online education, network stability is increasingly treated as the defining performance metric.

The awards cover the second half of 2025, with Globe highlighting continued infrastructure investments across mobile, fiber, and 5G networks.
