In cooperation with Chinese telecom giant Huawei, Vodafone Espana on Saturday launched the first commercial 5G mobile phone service in Spain, making the country one of the first European countries to be equipped with a high-speed mobile phone network.
According to Vodafone Espana, the 5G mobile network covers 15 major Spanish cities, including Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, and Seville. About half of the inhabitants of these cities will be able to benefit from the sophisticated and extremely fast mobile network, which will continue to grow over the next few months.
With 5G phones, Spanish 5G customers will enjoy a download speed of up to 1 gigabit per second at launch and 2 gigabits per second by the end of the year. In other words, they can be ten times faster than phones running on a 4G network, says Vodafone.
Vodafone has become the first operator to make 5G services available to Spanish customers. Vodafone Espana is also the network that covers the largest number of cities in Europe to date.
According to Huawei Spain, the company has worked hard for the launch and cooperated with Vodafone for this project as the main equipment supplier. The two companies have been working closely together for more than ten years.
