Vodafone and Three's merger may accelerate 5G deployment in the UK, yet a report from MedUX reveals UK 5G lags in quality and experience. The research, encompassing data from over 50 million smartphone users, indicates a notable gap between the ambitious 2030 goals for gigabit coverage and the current user experience realities. UK users experience 5G connectivity roughly 48% of the time, while countries like the Netherlands consistently offer high-quality experiences fueled by advanced technology. Currently, the UK has only 34% availability of 5G, highlighting its struggles to meet user expectations in the digital landscape.
The crowdsourcing report from MedUX reveals that UK 5G suffers from significant challenges in delivering high-quality user experiences, indicating a gap between aspirations and reality.
Despite the rollout of 5G networks across Europe and the merger of Vodafone and Three, the UK's digital strategy struggles to meet its goals for gigabit coverage by 2030.
Average 5G connectivity in Europe is only about 48%, showing a stark difference between expected coverage and the actual user experience.
The Netherlands, Switzerland, and Denmark are leading the way in 5G user experience, with the Netherlands achieving over 73% of technology usage due to advanced deployments.
