How fast is 5G?

5G can achieve download speeds 10 to 100 times faster than 4G. With Asda mobile, you could see download speeds between 100Mbps and 150Mbps!

The speed you can achieve depends on things like your location, how close you are to a 5G mast, what SIM plan you’re on, and if people around you are also using 5G.

5G vs 4G

You’ll be blown away by the speeds you can achieve with 5G when compared to 4G. You’ll be wondering how you ever coped with such a slow connection for so long! No more buffering, lagging, or connections drops in crowds.

Although 5G data outperforms 4G, it’s not as widespread (yet). It’s still a new technology, and has only been available in the UK for a few years. Rollout, coverage, and compatibility with 5G will only increase as time goes on.
