    Why 5G on EE?

    We’ve got 5G in more places than any other network in the UK.

    You’ll get a reliable, superfast connection wherever you are.

    5G on EE brings you a wealth of new experiences – from being the ultimate gamer to walking down the tunnel with your team on match day.

    What is 5G+?


    5G+ is the latest evolution in network technology..

    • It's up to 10x faster than 4G.
    • You'll experience a faster, more reliable connection in busy places.
    • 5G+ runs more efficiently, extending your battery life.

    5G+ used to be called 5G Standalone. This is because it works independently of the 4G network, extending our 5G coverage beyond 4G areas.
