French telecoms launch new 5G TV boxes and low‑cost summer mobile plans
SFR has introduced a 5G box equipped with Wi‑Fi 7, a 4K TV decoder and optional streaming services, reducing its price to €36.99 per month. Bouygues Telecom offers a similar 5G box with a Wi‑Fi 7 bi‑band repeater and a separate B. TV key that turns any TV into a connected set. Free’s 5G box relies on an app for TV content, while Orange provides a flexible Home Wi‑Fi 7 offering and a youth‑focused “Cheat Code” plan at €29.99. Customer reviews rank Bouygues as the best value for price‑quality, with Orange praised for service reliability.
On the mobile side, Sosh – operating on Orange’s network – released summer‑season plans ranging from €9.99 for 20 GB to €15.99 for a 200 GB 5G “Voyage” package, including generous roaming data across Europe, the DOM, and several extra destinations. The bundle of new 5G‑enabled boxes and competitive data tariffs signals a shift away from traditional fibre‑only solutions toward broader 5G adoption for home internet and TV services in France.
