Apart from the commercial deployment of 5G, Smart has recently unveiled its first 5G-powered gaming hub in the Philippines. Together with PLDT-Smart Omega team members and Team LuponWxC, Smart organized a mobile phone vs PC crossplay exhibition match via cloud gaming. Armed with Smart 5G-certified handsets, the former went head-to-head with the latter using their gaming PCs and played a DoTA 2. PLDT-Smart Omega emerged victorious from the game with a score of 34-6. Now, we are upping the ante by powering Gariath Concepts to become the country's first 5G-powered gaming hub. Gaming is at the forefront of technology and we believe 5G will pave the way for innovative platforms and exciting products that will dramatically enhance the experience of gamers,” said Jane Basas, senior vice president and head of Consumer Wireless Business at Smart.
