In a strategic move to offer superior connectivity experience, SLT-MOBITEL continues to strengthen its network by implementing cutting edge technologies like 4.5G, VOLTE, 5G trial services. Upon visiting, customers will have the opportunity to upgrade their devices to 4G/5G -enabled phones at a discounted price, bundled with attractive data packages from SLT- MOBITEL.
