Vodafone 5G

flexcon

Does anyone have a link to a map to show 5G coverage for Vodafone?
They are looking to get me to sign up and I have no idea if it will be even worth it.

They cannot seem to provider a map or info if I am covered.
Either over the phone, or via their Chat on the website.

It's all a bit bizarre and almost reminds me of dealing with Three - Ambiguity.

The map on that page is practically useless.

VF seem to have least number of 5G sites of the networks and it's only in cities.

Where is 5G available?

Our 5G network is now live in selected areas. These are in Dublin. Cork, Limerick, Waterford and Galway. 5G is also live in the Aviva stadium.
Our 5G network will be further expanded over the coming months.

This is a recent report on 5G in Ireland, Three are miles ahead.

I made a move from Three 5G to Eir 5G and I'm fairly disappointed, speeds are much slower with Eir.

Thanks for posting this. That was a great read. So looks like Vodafone once again being laggards. Slow and steady.

I'm sure they were the same with 3G at the time (but they rolled our 4G faster on the west coast if I remember correctly)

I'm on Vodafone Chat Extra pay as you go. It's a 4g plan but my speedtest today in Dublin showed 185mbps down and 37mbps up. 5g must be incredibly fast.

That "independent" report was commisioned by Three , so they are guaranteed to be the winner..

Have a look at Nperf, which will show you where 5g coverage has been verified for all operators ..

you can toggle all of he operators ..
