T-Mobile Storms Ahead with 5G

The UK ’ s 5G leader signed up 5.5mn post-paid 5G customers in 2020 , by far the biggest growth of any UK operator . The operator ’ s 5G network now covers more than 280mn people , a figure boosted by the company ’ s buyout of Sprint in Q2 .

The world ’ s most anticipated tech industry event - like pretty much everything else - went virtual this year . However , remote attendance , masks and social distancing didn ’ t stop everyone from Samsung and LG to Sony and AMD from trotting out a cornucopia of technological marvels .

Rogers communications is the first operator in Canada to hit the market with the country ’ s first standalone 5G network core . The rollout was built on Ericsson ’ s technology and went live in Montreal , Ottawa , Toronto and Vancouver late last year .
