LTE, that is, 4G usage is active in almost all countries now. However, the previous generation mobile communication infrastructures are also kept actively, just in case, which we sometimes get in return in our country, because 4G access is not available in every region. But European countries are willing to give it up later. One of these countries is England. The country will shut down 2G and 3G networks no matter what.
The UK Government has decided to shut down 2G and 3G networks by 2033 as part of its plans to promote the development and deployment of 5G services and to diversify the telecommunications supply chain. While this move is thought to accelerate the UK’s 5G goals, it is also thought to pave the way for future 6G service.
3G technology is also widely used in rural areas in the UK, but the closure of this service will allow operators to use spectrum for 4G and 5G networks. In this regard, an agreement has been reached with 4 operators in the country. Of course, this change will not be done all at once, but gradually and in a controlled manner; thus, it is aimed that no one will be victimized.
So, which mobile network is used in your location? Do any of you still see 2G and 3G?
