Network Usage Tips
Differences in 5G networks
The rollout of 5G technology varies by country and region, with uneven coverage. In some countries, the proportion of the population covered by 5G networks is relatively low, not exceeding 30%.
Signal attenuation in historic buildings
Many historical buildings in Europe feature thick stone walls, which can significantly weaken signals. It is recommended to use the network near windows or open areas inside these heritage sites.
Remote area coverage
As of December 2021, the coverage rate for 4G and above in urban areas of Europe was 100%, while it was 94% in rural areas (98.7% overall), with potentially limited coverage in remote mountainous regions and villages.
Network Congestion Alert
During peak travel seasons (such as summer along the Mediterranean coast or winter in the Alps for skiing), networks around popular attractions may experience congestion. It is advisable to avoid using high-bandwidth applications during peak hours.
Operator selection
Some countries have multiple operators with significant variations in coverage quality. For instance, Sweden, Belgium, and Romania have the lowest proportion of population covered by 5G networks due to the exclusion of Chinese communication equipment.
Subway and Tunnel
Most major European cities have 4G coverage in their metro systems, but signal interruptions may occur on some older lines and in tunnels, so it is advisable to download offline maps in advance.
Battery consumption
In the signal fringe areas, mobile phones continuously search for networks, leading to faster battery drain. Europe has approximately 223 million 5G users, with significant variations in network quality across different regions.
Price Evaluation
Mobile network coverage in 39 European countries reaches 98.7%, with a small gap between urban and rural areas (100% 4G coverage in cities, 94% in rural areas). Mobile data prices in Europe are relatively high, but the market is highly competitive, with basic urban plans (500MB-2GB/day) sufficient for daily needs. According to industry data, Europe has the highest number of commercial 5G networks, with 42 countries deploying 5G services. Western and Northern European countries lead in 5G network development, achieving speeds of up to 1Gbps, while Eastern Europe and the Balkan Peninsula are still in the process of 5G deployment. It is recommended to choose a data plan based on travel needs, with plans of 2GB or more advised for remote areas to ensure uninterrupted usage.
