Everything you need to know.
- Is my phone 5G Ready?
-
For your phone to be 5G Ready, it needs to be 5G compatible. In other words, it needs to be a 5G phone, not a 4G one. To check this on your Android phone, head to Settings then Network & internet. And for Apple iPhones, go to Settings, Mobile Data, then Mobile Data Options. Then, when you’re in one of our 5G areas, you can enjoy all the fun that 5G brings.
- Do I need a new phone for 5G?
-
You’ll need a 5G phone to connect to 5G, you can’t access it using a 4G phone. That’s the only thing you’ll need though. All our SIMs are 5G Ready as standard, so you won’t need a new one. An automatic software update will do the rest. Then head to one of our 5G areas and enjoy 5G at no extra cost.
- Can 5G phones use 4G?
-
Yes, they can. 5G phones can use 3G too. Just like now, as you move around, your phone seamlessly connects to 3G if 4G’s not available. Soon, if you’re in a 5G area with a 5G device, you’ll be able to enjoy that super-fast 5G speed. And when you move, your phone will automatically transfer to the next best connection available, whether that’s 4G or 3G.
