But the company seems like it’s slowly learning from its mistakes as they unveiled the O+ EVO 4G – the company’s first LTE-enabled smartphone with 5-inch 1280x720 display. As you can see on its specs sheet above, the new O+ Evo 4G seems like a strong contender in the budget LTE smartphone category, especially if we consider that it will only retail for Php7,995 when it becomes available later this month. It's been 6 months since OpenSignal released a State of LTE Report with the Philippines getting an average of 8.59Mbps. In terms of 4G availability, the Philippines ranked 72nd (out of 75) with 52.77% LTE coverage ( the percentage of the time that users can connect to a 4G network). This is a little better than the 44.8% LTE availability that the Philippines got back in November 2016. South Korea leads the pack with 96.38% LTE availability and Japan at 93.48%. Smart has just confirmed the pricing of their new 42Mbps Smart LTE service. The postpaid Plan 3500 comes with a free LTE dongle (worth Php8k).
