Following EE’s launch last month, Three have now followed suit announcing their 5G launch.
Starting with home broadband in London in August, the 5G service will extend to mobiles shortly after.
Although Vodafone came in as the second company announcing a 5G service, Three claims theirs will be twice as fast.
Tho mobile operator will be rolling out the service to 25 locations across the UK by the end of 2019.
As with their competition, to use Three’s 5G service, consumers will need to be in a 5G area and have a 5G enabled smartphone of home broadband device. The devices available will be announced in July.
