5G in Belfast

Options
Hi, just wondering if anyone has experienced the offerings? I believe we are restricted to EE & o2 ATM (Three as with 4G ignoring us, Vodafone may have us on the roadmap, but I can't recall).

I have ordered a cracking mobiles.co.uk 12 month 100GB o2 sim only for (after redemption cash back) £13.50/mth, which should end up costing me under £12/mth (Santander 123 plus £10 TCB). EE only have unlimited for £44/mth on sim only - I'd stick with 4G before I pay that.
Certain OTT members have caused me to add this disclaimer: all advice given is free of charge & as such should be taken to be IIRC (as I don't spend hours researching all answers :eek: )!

    Good 4G coverage right across the city would be preferable!

    On the topic of 5G, o2 has some 5G in east Belfast (have not tried elsewhere) - hit 200Mbps near the mast, but it falls off VERY quickly - sub 4G speeds at my house. Interestingly the speed right beside the mast was only 100Mbps (below the mast, if it is on top of the building I think), but hit 200Mbps 100 yards one way & 190Mbps the other. So even the distance from the mast to the edge of the building knocks the speed right down.
