OPPO Find X2 Pro: Globe vs Smart postpaid plans comparison

Published

May 25, 2020

OPPO’s Find X series has always been about delivering the latest and greatest specs. The OPPO Find X2 Pro is a continuation of that trend. Now, it’s coming to the Philippines. It will retail at all OPPO physical stores. It will also be available as a postpaid device for both Globe and Smart.

To help you decide which is better for you, we’ve come up with a postpaid plan comparison for both telcos. We will base the comparison for both telcos on the postpaid plan that will give the perfect balance of what you get from what you will pay for.

As such, we’re picking Globe’s ThePlan 1999 and Smart’s Signature Plan L. It is important to note that Globe only offers a one-time cashout option while Smart offers both a one-time cashout and a staggered payment option for the OPPO Find X2 Pro. For the purpose of this comparison, we’ll choose the one-time cashout option for both telcos.

Without further ado, let’s compare the plans:

Plan Comparison

	Globe	Smart
Plan Name	ThePlan 1999	Signature Plan L
Data	16 GB	15 GB
Text	Unlimited to all networks	Unlimited to all networks
Call	150 mins. to any network Unlimited to Globe/TM	150 mins. to any network Unlimited to Smart/Sun
Device Fee	PhP 28,800.00	PhP 31,200
Monthly Fee	PhP 1,999	PhP 1,999
Freebies	Free 1 GB of Facebook monthly 6-month Amazon Prime Video subscription 3-month iflix VIP subscription Free shipping	Free shipping
Contract Period	24 months	24 months
Total Cash-out Cost	PhP 30,799	PhP 33,199

On cost and freebies alone, Globe wins this comparison. You are getting more when you avail Globe’s postpaid plan for this device. If you’re a heavy user of Facebook and Amazon Prime Video, you’ll really get the most out of ThePlan 1999 than Smart’s current offering. Plus, the lower overall cost makes Globe’s offering much more attractive if you want to get the most out of your postpaid plan.

However, that is not to say that you should avoid Smart altogether. Smart’s Signature Plan is better than ever, with exclusive perks and exclusives through the MVP Rewards. Plus, there are some areas in the country where Smart’s coverage is way better than Globe’s. If you live in these areas, it’s much better to avail of Smart’s offering.
