And this is what I found out.

Mobile networks - GSM and 3G coverage ( Philippines)

In Philippines, Mobile phone with GSM 900 and GSM 1800 capacity for 2G and UMTS 2100 capacity for 3g will definitely work. User needs to check the network Band capability of mobile phones that are being purchased abroad if it falls to this category. Since if not , users will just waste their money purchasing high end phone that will not work in Philippines.

Additional information could be found from Wikipedia as follows:

List of mobile network operators of the Asia Pacific region - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It says that Smart Communication & Globe Telecom supports the following network band:

Smart Communication

  • Smart : GSM, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA, HSPA+, WMAX, LTE
  • Talk and Text : GSM
  • Red Mobile: GSM
  • Sun Cellular:GSM

Globe Telecom

  • Globe : GSM, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA, HSPA+, WMAX,
  • Touch Mobile” GSM

Bookmark this information since this might help you when buying phone outside Philippines.

Well I am talking about red mobile , This is a company that will try to impress the Philippine phone users with their 3G service.

The only glitch is that they require a 3G Mobile Phone. Well I don’t know why.. Although there are some blogger’s who already covered this information I there might be somebody out there who have not yet heard about the news. So Here it is :)

I just hope that their service will be better that other network. Although I cannot test it, I know time will come that if they will become successful they will also have their international roaming service. For now let those blogger living in Philippines test the system.

Well according to other Tech Blogger in Philippines Red Mobile is the old Umobile in Philippines which is also related to Smart.

They are telling the public that they have the Lowest Per minute rate as shown in the table below. So let us see how well they can serve the Filipino.

Lowest per minute rate in the country!
