DITO Telecommunity, the fastest-growing telco in the country, clinches three prestigious awards during the recently concluded 2025 Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona, Spain— winning the Best Digital Experience Platform from Whale Cloud, the First Large-Scale Redcap FWA Commercial Deployment in the World award from Huawei Technologies, and Fastest Mobile Network from Opensignal.
These awards recognize DITO’s immense and valuable contribution to delivering new technologies, aggressive 5G deployment, and high-speed connectivity in the Philippines.
Whale Cloud, a leading technology company, granted DITO the Best Digital Experience Platform award, acknowledging the young telco’s leadership in operational excellence and groundbreaking innovations in the digital space.
Meanwhile, Huawei’s First Large-Scale RedCap FWA Commercial Deployment in the World award validates DITO’s significant contribution to 5G deployment in the Philippines when it launched the DITO Home WOWFi last year–the first ever 5G RedCap WiFi in the world for home application, driving the future of digital homes in the country.
Powered by DITO’s true 5G network or 5G standalone (SA) infrastructure, the DITO Home WOWFi is a breakthrough product made possible through DITO’s strategic partnership with Huawei Technologies, a global leader in 5G deployment. This home WiFi is the most value-packed wireless broadband in the market and the most affordable way to experience 5G connectivity. It capitalizes on the power of 5G RedCap, a dynamic new version of 5G which offers the right balance of 5G capabilities such as low latency, high peak data rate, and maximum capacity.
This emerging 5G technology is globally used for industrial and manufacturing. But here in the Philippines, DITO paved the way to bring this technology straight to Filipino homes, allowing households to enjoy the benefits of 5G at a very affordable price.
Last, but certainly not the least, DITO also won Opensignal’s Fastest Mobile Network award with a robust 5G download speed of 287.2 Mbps and an overall download speed of 34.6 Mbps, leaving competition far behind in the speed race.
Now in its fourth year of commercial operations, these achievements solidify DITO’s position further as the duopoly disruptor, leading the way in providing digital excellence, access to affordable 5G solutions, and high-speed connectivity.
According to DITO Telecommunity CEO Mr. Eric Alberto, these global recognitions validate the company’s growing contribution and significance in the telco landscape.
“We’re glad to be recognized by global industry giants like Whale Cloud, Huawei, and Opensignal. For four years, we’ve been relentless in pursuing the right balance between providing next-gen products and services, while maintaining our value-for-money stance, to provide more digital access to millions of Filipinos nationwide. Receiving these awards validate that we’ve reached a new level of operational excellence in 5G deployment, network speed, and performance. Truly, we’re thankful to all our supportive DITOzens and progressive business partners for helping put DITO on the map on the global ICT stage,” Alberto said.
