Three reasons why you should choose the new EE 5G network

17th May 2019

5G has arrived in the UK and it’s here to take your mobile experience to the next level, with a more reliable service in busy places, speeds like you’ve never seen before and an instant connection to the content you love.

But why choose 5G on EE?

Here are three top reasons to join us:

1. We’re making the UK’s best network even better

Our 4G network has been voted the UK’s best for six years running. Now we’re launching 5G, we’re going to make sure our network’s better than ever by putting it in the places where it matters most – the busiest areas in the busiest cities.

In 2019, we’ll be switching 5G on in 16 cities – starting with the UK’s four capital cities – London, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast – as well as Birmingham and Manchester. 5G will be switched on in Glasgow, Newcastle, Liverpool, Leeds, Hull, Sheffield, Nottingham, Leicester, Coventry and Bristol later this year.

5G on EE will let you download your favourite films and TV shows in seconds rather than minutes, so you can quickly fill up your phone with great content. Plus, 5G will give you a better connection in busy places and at busy times so you can enjoy better video calls, stream sports in higher resolution, and share and download content faster at packed train stations, festivals and stadiums.

2. 5G plans packed with Smart Benefits

Our next generation of Smart Plans are smarter than ever, helping you to make the most of 5G by letting you choose from a number of benefits at the start of your plan and giving you the flexibility to switch them around whenever you fancy.

If you love listening to music you can choose the Music Data Pass, which lets you stream as much music as you want from the likes of Apple Music, Tidal and Deezer without eating into your data. Or if you enjoy a good box-set session on the way to work, the Video Data Pass covers you for all the data you use while streaming from Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, BT Sport, TV Player and MTV Play.

There’s also the BT Sport HDR App, which makes live sport look more detailed and life-like than ever before. Plus, the Roam Further Pass, which lets you use your data allowance in the USA, Canada, Mexico, Australia and New Zealand.

Our service is getting smarter too. Our new Service Pack keeps your phone in tip-top condition for no extra cost. You’ll get an EE lifetime guarantee for your phone until you upgrade or leave, a phone and account MOT to make sure you’re making the most of everything and to give your phone a polish and clean, and £10 off protective kit to keep your shiny new smartphone looking its very best.

If you enjoy getting your hands on the latest technology, our Smart Plans also let you upgrade anytime too.

These really are the UK’s smartest plans.

3. The best range of 5G phones for launch

EE will be launching with the widest range of 5G phones. We’ll be the first network in the world to bring you the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G smartphone, as well as the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G, Huawei Mate 20 X 5G, LG V50 ThinQ and the Oppo Reno 5G.

If you want to experience the wonderful world of 5G on the best devices, EE is the place to be.
