In short

5G is the fifth generation of mobile data, and every brand in this group states it as standard rather than a premium extra.

5G is the fifth generation of mobile data, and it is now a standard expectation rather than a premium extra. Every brand checked here states it: 019 Mobile, 1&1, 1pMobile, 2degrees and 3 Denmark all list 5G on their own sites. Treat it as a check rather than a differentiator, and weigh the data allowance and its cost instead. The label earns its keep in a crowded city or a packed stadium, where an older network struggles with video calls and large uploads.
