Table of Contents

We are not charging extra for 5G on our SIM Only plans. This great news comes days after our new SIM Only plans launch and sets Globe2 apart from those providers (who shall not be named) who charge extra for 5G.

 

What is 5G and what is the benefit?

5G is the fifth generation wireless technology that devices such as (selected) smart phones can use. The deployment began in 2019 and currently the coverage is limited to a few locations across the UK dependent on the network. 5G can work up to 10x quicker than 4G so you can stream and download videos faster than ever.

Currently, we can provide 5G Sim Only contracts on O2 and Vodafone on one month contracts. We can also provide network-billed 5G plans for EE Business, please get in touch fore more information.

What speeds can you achieve with a 5G SIM Only plan?

 

Early tests published on Youtube, shown results between 200-350Mbps download speed. This is 5x the average fixed broadband speed and almost 10x the average mobile speed as reported by speedtest.net. However, we expect results of around 100Mbps depending on your area.

To find out what the 5G coverage is like in your area, please use the O2 coverage checker or the Vodafone coverage checker. EE’s coverage checker can be found here.

The O2 Coverage checker is very useful and can give you estimated download speeds, so we recommend you head there first to get an idea on the speed you can achieve.
