    Why

    1. Traficom gives 3.8 million 5G-capable subscriptions at the end of December 2025.
    2. It reports that 38% of data went over 5G in autumn 2025.

    Details

    A subscription that enables 5G only works on 5G if the phone supports it and there is 5G coverage where you are.

    Tip

    If your phone supports 5G but never shows it, check that 5G is switched on in the network settings.

    What may differ

    Statistics cover all operators together. One operator's figures may differ.
