Vodafone UK SuperMobile 5G service launch

Overview

Following the merger of Vodafone and Three, the entity VodafoneThree launched ‘SuperMobile’, a new 5G service in the United Kingdom. The service utilizes network slicing technology to provide enhanced connectivity and aims to compete with BT-owned EE by offering speeds up to four times faster than standard plans.

A key feature of the offering is a conditional minimum download speed guarantee of 15 Mbps in eligible 5G+ areas. In a move described as an industry first, the company stated that customers may leave their contracts without penalty if this speed guarantee is not met. The service is available for an additional fee ranging from £3 to £12 depending on the existing plan.

Subsequent details regarding the service specify that priority access is capped at 600 GB of data per month, after which users revert to standard network treatment. Additionally, Vodafone UK noted that connecting via 5G+ can reduce device energy consumption by up to 25%.
