Sun Cellular has come out and announced its entry into the mobile 3G market with its Wireless Broadband offering. An unlimited flat-rate account starts at Php999 a month for speeds up to 400kbps and Php1,999/month for the 1.4Mbps connection.
There’s also a 60-allocation for only Php799 but it’s too close to the Php999 unlimited plan. Sun Cellular Wireless Broadband is initially available in areas within Metro Manila.
Hopefully, they’ll be able to roll out the rest of their 3G network within the year.
Since Sun Cellular is the only telco to offer unlimited flat-rate subscription, it has become the de facto cheapest 3G provider in the Philippines. Globe used to offer a flat-rate fee of Php3,000 (there was a promo Php2,000/month too) over its 3G/HSDPA network but reverted back to time-based allocation.

the cheapest but not the most useful for those who loves bit torrent download.. examine closely the terms and condition before you apply… there’s a lot of restriction when it comes to data usage…
I just got a Sun Broadband Php999/mo package and so far the service has been great. Been consistently getting >350kbps within Metro Manila.
As for the TOS & EULA that the previous commenter mentioned, that goes without saying. But then again, who’s there to monitor & block what each subscriber is downloading? At any rate, I’m just a happy & satisfied customer. 2 enthusiastic thumbs up!
me either, I’m a satisfied costumer. and I’m happy using it.
I also tried accessing their 3G network by changing the settings on my phone, using my old 2G SIM and it works for wap browsing! Dont know about the actual speed, but am ok with it so far. I also heard today they are now offering P10 for 30 min instead of the per KB charge. Hope they offer unlimited soon too
