Plus – the leader of new technologies

Plus has for many years been setting the standards for mobile Internet access. In 2004 Plus customers were the first ones in Poland to gain access to 3G (UMTS) technology. In 2011  Plus was the first operator in Poland to offer 4G (LTE) Internet access to its customers. 2020 was a breakthrough year marking the launch of the first in Poland commercially-operating 5G network. 5G Ultra is next milestone on the path to digitization of Poland. Over the next few weeks 5G Ultra will become available in further cities, towns and places.

All the results of independent rankings confirm that Plus is the leader of 5G technology in Poland. Based on SpeedTest.pl data, in April the average data downloading speed in 5G technology in Plus network was 137.2 Mbps, while the test results prepared by RFBenchmark.pl  put the speed at 148.2 Mbps. The results are about twice better than the results achieved by the remaining operators. Providing access to 5G Ultra will lead to further improvement of these results.
