NAGA CITY, Philippines — Globe is bringing a 5G speed boost to Naga City with network upgrades that deliver broader coverage and faster mobile speeds. The latest enhancements provide customers with a more reliable overall mobile experience, supporting the growing demand for streaming, remote work, and other digital services.
As Camarines Sur's largest city and Bicol Region's economic, educational, cultural, and religious center, Naga continues to thrive as a hub for commerce, education, tourism, and public services. Globe's enhanced network enables Nagueños to enjoy faster downloads and uploads, smoother streaming, quicker file sharing, more reliable video calls, and seamless access to online services.
These upgrades support high-demand activities such as online learning, cloud-based work, e-commerce, digital payments, content creation, and the growing adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions across homes, businesses, and public services. With its 5G network coverage for the 21 barangays in Naga City, Globe is enabling more residents, businesses, and visitors to enjoy faster speeds, smoother digital experiences, and more reliable connectivity.

By enhancing our new 5G network in Naga City, we are providing customers with a faster and more reliable mobile experience that supports learning, business, tourism, and everyday communication," said Adonis Evangelista, Globe General Manager for South Luzon.
The network upgrades complement Globe's ongoing partnership with the Naga City government through the Digital Thumbprint Program (DTP), which promotes digital citizenship, cybersecurity awareness, online safety, data privacy, and cyberbullying prevention among students, teachers, parents, and community members. Supported by the Department of Education, the program has reached more than 2 million learners nationwide through free learning modules and interactive sessions that encourage responsible online behavior and safer digital practices.
"Reliable digital connectivity is key to Naga City's continued growth and transformation. Globe has been a valuable partner in expanding digital access while promoting responsible technology use through initiatives that benefit our students, communities, and local institutions. Together, these efforts help advance our vision of a more connected, resilient, and future-ready Naga," said Naga City Mayor Leni Robredo.
