5G or 4g+
Are Smarty mobile using a 5g standalone network or are they still using the 4g spectrum to give customers a 4g+ service?

Maisie They use both 4G and 5G where available.
Information available here:
My question was what kind of 5g. There are 2 types, one runs off the back of the 4g spectrum so really it’s just LTE+, it has faster speeds but not to the levels 5g can get to and the latency is slower, coverage poorer.
And there is true 5g or stand alone 5g that runs off a 5g spectrum. It’s has the enhanced speeds, better latency, more coverage (indoor and outdoor).
I can’t find anywhere to say if they have upgraded the network to 5gSA.
