Lenovo has expanded its Personal AI vision with a new consumer device portfolio that brings smarter, connected AI experiences alongside bold, style-focused designs — all at accessible price points.

Smart Communications has achieved a perfect zero percent call drop rate in the National Telecommunications Commission’s most recent service quality tests across Metro Manila, marking a major milestone in reliable voice service for subscribers. The result easily clears the regulator’s required standard of less than 2 percent call drop ratio, meaning calls connect and stay connected consistently for users. For customers, this translates to clearer, uninterrupted conversations whether for personal calls, work updates, or emergency communications—no more frustrating cut-offs that waste time and cause inconvenience.

Globe led the National Telecommunications Commission’s latest service quality tests, recording the highest SMS success rate at 99.41 percent — the only provider to pass the NTC’s 99 percent standard. Its call drop ratio hit just 0.74 percent, well below the 2 percent limit, while peak download speed reached 381 Mbps.

The PLDT Group is calling for deeper partnership between the government and private sector to make the country’s subsea cable network stronger and more reliable.

Lenovo is bringing its flagship Tech World event back to the Consumer Electronics Show or CES 2027, hosting the January 6 keynote at Sphere to unveil innovations centered on its Hybrid AI vision: combining human and artificial intelligence to create real value. Open to credentialed guests and streamed globally, the gathering will feature top industry leaders exploring how AI serves people, business and society.
