vectone mobile deals & problems
the latest vectone mobile deal is 30G for £10 which is comparable to giffgaffs 40G for £20 however there are a couple of bugs
- NO DATA on a HONOR KIW-L21
- Vectone X app errors on a a HONOR KIW-L2 and an IPHONE
so will have to stick with giffgaff for the time being
FYI
- giffgaff MVNO runs on O2
- vectone MVNO runs on EE

A 5G network supports ultra-high-speed data rates of up to 10 Gbps, low latency or delay and can cope with up to a million devices per square kilometer. With 5G, you can download a typical high-definition movie in under 40 seconds, as opposed to more than seven minutes with 4G.
