Featuring Globe’s 4G Technology

Globe has always been ahead of other mobile companies in bringing in and upgrading amazing and convenient technologies to everyone. Recently, Globe announces a major expansion of its current 4G footprint by introducing to the public the 4G mobile technology. Before we know more about Globe’s new technology, let’s dig deeper to terms.

4G differs from 3G in such a way that it allows for peak theoritical download speeds upt to 21 Mbps and upgradeable to 84Mbps. Specifically, Globe will be using HSPA+ (Evolved High-Speed Packet Access). Yeah, it’s really digging deep down to technicalities but the main point is 4G offers really, really fast internet connectivity. That means, time with using your mobile phone for internet would mean a better experience in browsing, social networking, streaming, downloading ang multimedia upload — good for both ordinary users and pros (e.g. photographers).

Globe’s Super Surf & Power Surf

Ever tired of relying on free WiFi just to connect to the internet wherever you go? That’s what usually happens to me. I have to find the WiFi spot of a mall, or go and spend a little just to hitch to a coffee or yogurt shop’s free WiFi. That’s because I had this notion that connecting to the internet through my mobile service provider can be quite costly and a pain in the pocket. But I just found out, after reading some entries over at YugaTech, that mobile service providers have now prepared affordable offers/promos to subscribers for mobile internet connectivity. It’s an addition to the line of competition for these mobile companies, and we’ll see whose offer kicks the most. But in this post, let’s talk about Globe’s.

Actually, Globe Telecom has two offers for its subscribers. The first one is called Globe Super Surf, available to both postpaid & prepaid subscribers. For as low as P50, one can browse the internet for one whole day. The second one, Globe Power Surf, is available only to prepaid subscribers. The difference is that Power Surf offers mobile internet which is consumable per minute. P15 can go for as long as 60 minutes of internet connectivity. If you spend more time on the internet, go for Super Surf. If you want to hop in and check the web at many intervals a day, go for Power Surf.

Note: Globe also offers postpaid plans and you can get the Samsung Galaxy Tab below at Plan P2,499 with FREE 30 days Super Surf.
