Managing internet usage often means balancing data limits with a daily budget. PLDT Home Fiber Prepaid’s new video campaign brings to life a reality that most families deal with and how affordable and unlimited fiber can offer a practical option for home connectivity.

PLDT Home Fiber Prepaid’s latest video dubbed “Bitin” reflects a common reality for many Filipino households who rely on volume-capped data for home use.

PLDT Home Fiber Prepaid lets you enjoy unlimited and reliable internet that’s ideal for multiple device and household use. Because it runs on fiber, the connection is built for shared household activity, supporting multiple devices at once, even for heavy bandwidth activities such as video calls, online classes, streaming, and uploading large files or content.

In practical terms, a 30-day unlimited fiber load works out to under P23.30 a day, a cost level comparable to what many households already budget for recurring data but applied to a dedicated home connection.

Mynt powers next chapter of GCash: unlocking world-class innovations, advancing financial access

Tweet

Mynt, the parent company of GCash, continues to grow from strength to strength as it pushes for more world-class innovations on payments, lending, and other financial services.

The company has further built on the success of its core payments and lending businesses which delivered healthy year-on-year growth in 2025. Mynt’s attributable equity earnings to Globe reached PHP 6.1 billion (USD 103.7 million) in 2025, higher by 64% year-on-year.

“Our growth momentum continues as digital finance becomes more embedded in daily life,” said Martha Sazon, president and CEO of Mynt. “We are doubling down on expanding financial access to the masses through everyday payments, fair lending, and inclusive wealth and insurance products”

Pioneering next-gen, inclusive payments for everyday Filipinos

In 2025, GCash mobile wallet operator G-Xchange, Inc. (GXI), further expanded financial access by partnering with the Philippine government in revolutionizing payments in the country's transport sector—starting with Metro Manila’s major rail and bus systems, which can now accept card, QR, and NFC payments.

This was further enabled by the launch of Tap to Pay, a next-generation NFC solution enabling secure, contactless payments across 150 million merchants worldwide. The company also accelerated its expansion into underserved segments, with 90% of users from lower socio-economic segments and 78% from outside Metro Manila.

Robust growth in fair and inclusive lending

Fuse Financing, the lending arm of Mynt, has also reached significant milestones in 2025 as it disbursed loans worth PHP 362 billion (USD 6.16 billion) life-to-date, a substantial 65% increase from 2024. This growth was driven by over 10.5 million unique borrowers, and GScore, its proprietary trust scoring system.

Fuse has also partnered with the Asian Development Bank for a PHP 1.75 billion loan (USD 30 million) to accelerate credit access to MSMEs—marking a landmark partnership in the ASEAN between ADB and a fintech company.

Unlocking wealth management and affordable insurance for all

GCash has significantly boosted its wealth portfolio, with its investment platform, GStocks Ph, serving 1.7 million registered users in 2025, a 65% increase year-on-year. It has also introduced its IPO Subscription feature, which enabled thousands to participate in a recent Philippine IPO, with orders via GStocks oversubscribed by over 200% during the sale period.

Through GInsure, GCash further expanded access to affordable insurance for millions of Filipinos — with 132.6 million policies sold life-to-date in 2025, nearly triple the previous year’s level. This growth was supported by a 45% increase in GInsure users to 20.6 million.

Deepening financial access for all Filipinos

GCash has also been doubling down its support for entrepreneurs in 2025 with the launch of the GCash Pera Outlet Plus App, making it easier for nano-merchants to access digital services, alongside GCash PocketPay, transforming smartphones into point-of-sale (POS) devices for card payments. The company also made receiving international remittances from the United States faster and easier through its Virtual US Account.

Underpinned by its growth and inclusive fintech innovations, GCash has solidified itself as the #1 Finance App in the Philippines by monthly active users, according to Sensor Tower data as of December 2025.

“Across our various businesses, we strive to achieve meaningful impact, aimed at Making Filipinos’ Everyday Lives Better and accelerating financial inclusion for all,” said Sazon.

LG Sound Suite: The World’s First Soundbar Audio System Powered by Dolby Atmos FlexConnect

Tweet

Debuting at CES 2026, LG’s Modular LG Sound Suite with Dolby Atmos FlexConnect Makes Home Audio Simple and Flexible

At CES 2026, LG Electronics (LG) is transforming home entertainment with LG Sound Suite, a home audio system that gives consumers unprecedented flexibility. At its core is the H7 soundbar – the world’s first with Dolby Atmos® FlexConnectTM – delivering immersive Dolby Atmos sound that adapts to a room’s layout without complicated setup.

LG Sound Suite works seamlessly with LG’s premium TVs, allowing users to pair any of its wireless components – including the M7 and M5 surround speakers, and the W7 subwoofer – with or without the H7 soundbar for 27 possible configurations. This flexibility means consumers can create the perfect setup for their space, whether starting small or building a full 13.1.7-channel home theater. And when the H7 soundbar serves as the lead device, Dolby Atmos FlexConnect works with any TV via HDMI, giving consumers the freedom to meet their entertainment needs. LG is also bringing Dolby Atmos FlexConnect to its 2026 premium TV lineup and select 2025 models* through a future software update, unlocking even more ways to enjoy Dolby Atmos.

Dolby Atmos FlexConnect delivers the simplest and most flexible way to bring immersive Dolby Atmos sound to your favorite big screen. Enjoy astonishing audio that makes every explosion more intense, every song more life-like, every game day more electrifying, and every moment more memorable. Setup has never been easier – it’s flexible and intelligently tuned for your personal listening environment.

Audio is reclaiming its place in the living room as streaming has replaced physical media. Leading platforms now deliver movies, shows, and sports in Dolby Atmos and other advanced formats, making cinematic sound widely accessible. This shift has revived home theater, with consumers seeking immersive audio to match the stunning TV visuals. LG Sound Suite answers this demand with wireless convenience, simplicity and performance, bringing true surround sound back to the heart of the home. With Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, LG Sound Suite offers seamless pairing for streaming and device integration, making setup as simple as enjoying the sound.

In this regard, LG adds its own layer of innovation to elevate the experience. Sound Follow leverages ultra-wideband (UWB) technology to adjust the listening sweet spot based on the user’s location. When combined with Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, this ensures personalized immersion – so any seat feels like the best seat. Additionally, Room Calibration Pro analyzes acoustic characteristics and applies AI processing to refine the sound for a balanced, room-filling audio experience.

Powering the H7 soundbar is LG’s most advanced processor, the α (Alpha) 11 AI Processor Gen 3 – the same chip that drives LG’s flagship OLED TVs. Bringing this proven technology to audio delivers added performance and intelligence. The processor uses deep learning and its Neural Processing Unit to create sound with remarkable precision. With AI Sound Pro+, stereo audio can be up-mixed into an immersive spatial audio experience, while AI-powered object separation ensures voices, music, and sound effects are clear and balanced. The system also adapts audio based on content type for optimized sound across different genres.

Every component in the LG Sound Suite features Peerless speaker units, a name synonymous with audio excellence for over a century and renowned for high-performance craftsmanship in premium speaker systems. By pairing the simplicity and flexibility of Dolby Atmos FlexConnect with the high-caliber acoustic performance of Peerless speakers, LG Sound Suite ushers in a new era of immersive Dolby Atmos sound.

“Together with Dolby, we’ve made immersive audio flexible for every home, LG Sound Suite is a testament to our shared focus on audio innovation,” said Lee Jeong-seok, head of the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company’s Audio Business Division. “LG Sound Suite combines Dolby Atmos FlexConnect with its wireless modular design and AI-driven tuning, so consumers can create the system they want and enjoy cinematic sound from any seat.”

“Dolby and LG are unlocking a new level of audio flexibility for anyone who wants to enjoy better sound with Dolby Atmos,” said John Couling, Senior Vice President of Entertainment at Dolby Laboratories. “Whether your speakers sit on a shelf or are tucked into a corner, Dolby Atmos FlexConnect fits naturally into any home without the complexity of traditional systems. We’re excited for consumers to experience this new level of audio flexibility and performance.”

LG Sound Suite will be on show during CES 2026 from January 6-9 at the LG’s booth. To stay up to date with all of LG’s latest innovations and products for ultimate home entertainment experience, please visit the LG Newsroom.
