South Korean wireless telecommunications operator, SK Telecom, has launched in its home country its new mobile internet service called LTE-A Pro which is capable of up to 500Mbps download speeds.
In a report by ZDNet dated last month, Choi Seung-won, Senior Vice President of SK Telecom’s infrastructure strategy division, said that LTE-A Pro is “about 7 times faster than the original LTE service, through its five band carrier aggregation.” He also added that LTE-A Pro “will be a bridgehead for development of 5G technology.”
The company is not stopping there though, as it is planning to launch 1Gbps connection by 2019.

What caught my attention was “five band aggregation”.
Wow, anu-anong mga frequency bands gamit nila. And swerte naman ng mga telco dun, andaming licensed spectrum for them.
bagal says:
Kung sa Pilipinas magkakaron ng ganyan… (after 2 seconds of opening mobile data)
Provider: “You have reached the 1GB data limit.”
HAHA WTF
Archie says:
Hula ko nasa 600-700 pesos lang ang 500mbps na yan pag kinonvert sa peso ang korean won. Mamatay na lang ang pilipinas sa inggit.
Archie says:
Mali pala ako $20-$25 lang pala ang 1Gbps monthly kaya mga 500pesos lang ang 500mbps sa kanila.
Dissenter says:
Pilipinas, nasaan ka na? @ 100kbps pa rin ang minimum pag na consume na ang ilang GB na data? Hahah! Mag improve nga ang Globe and smart pero 100x fold naman ang ibang karatig bansa, what’s the use? MAs okay na i open na nga ni Duterte and telco sa Pinas…. It would take several years for the current telcos we have to reach at least quarter (maybe not even this) the speed of korea. Geh lang, profit pa more, magic the books pa more, evade pa more….
Duterte must kill pa more….
