DITO Starts 2025 Strong with Three Global Awards
Global Recognition at Mobile World Congress 2025
DITO Telecommunity has kicked off 2025 with a bang, winning three prestigious awards at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) held in Barcelona, Spain. Known as the fastest-growing telco in the Philippines, DITO bagged awards for Best Digital Experience Platform from Whale Cloud, First Large-Scale RedCap FWA Commercial Deployment in the World from Huawei Technologies, and Fastest Mobile Network from Opensignal. These accolades underscore DITO’s relentless efforts to push the boundaries of technology and deliver high-speed connectivity in the Philippines.
Best Digital Experience Platform by Whale Cloud
Whale Cloud, a leading tech company, awarded DITO the Best Digital Experience Platform for its groundbreaking innovations in the digital space. This recognition highlights DITO’s commitment to operational excellence and its ability to provide seamless digital experiences for millions of Filipinos. As a relatively young telco, DITO has quickly established itself as a leader in adopting cutting-edge technologies and delivering user-friendly services.
Revolutionizing Homes with RedCap Technology
Huawei Technologies presented DITO with the First Large-Scale RedCap FWA Commercial Deployment in the World award, cementing its role as a pioneer in 5G deployment. In 2024, DITO launched the DITO Home WOWFi, the first-ever 5G RedCap WiFi designed for home use. This product marked a breakthrough, offering Filipino households affordable access to 5G connectivity.
The DITO Home WOWFi is powered by DITO’s standalone 5G infrastructure and developed in partnership with Huawei, a global leader in 5G solutions. RedCap (Reduced Capability) 5G technology optimizes low latency, high peak data rates, and maximum capacity, providing robust connectivity without breaking the bank. While globally adopted for industrial and manufacturing applications, DITO has brought this innovative technology straight to Filipino homes, bridging the gap in affordable high-speed internet solutions.
Leading the Speed Race with Opensignal Recognition
DITO rounded out its award haul by being named the Fastest Mobile Network in the Philippines by Opensignal. Boasting an impressive 5G download speed of 287.2 Mbps and an overall download speed of 34.6 Mbps, DITO has set the bar high in network performance. This achievement puts them well ahead of competitors, solidifying their position as a leader in connectivity.
The Opensignal recognition is a testament to DITO’s dedication to providing fast and reliable internet access to millions of Filipinos. By prioritizing speed and quality, DITO continues to redefine the standards for mobile connectivity in the country.
Shaping the Future of Telco in the Philippines
In just four years of commercial operations, DITO has emerged as a disruptor in a telco landscape once dominated by a duopoly. With a focus on innovation, value-for-money services, and wide-reaching 5G accessibility, the company has steadily grown its footprint nationwide.
These achievements, according to DITO Telecommunity CEO Eric Alberto, are proof of the company’s impact on the industry. “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,” said Alberto. “Receiving these awards validates that we’ve reached a new level of operational excellence in 5G deployment, network speed, and performance.”
Acknowledging the DITO Community
DITO’s success story is not just about technology but also its growing community of users. Fondly referred to as “DITOzens,” its customers and partners play a crucial role in the company’s journey. With their support, DITO has managed to establish itself not only as a telco service provider but also as a key player on the global ICT stage.
By pioneering affordable solutions like the DITO Home WOWFi and consistently improving its network speeds, DITO is proving that innovation and accessibility can go hand-in-hand. These recognitions at MWC 2025 further cement its position as a forward-thinking telco committed to delivering excellence in every facet of its operations.
