This is an excellent Initiative by o2, and shows what can be done when solutions are developed by techies rather than accountants..

And this shows that there isn't a one size fits all solution, so more this please VMo2

I completely agree @madasaf1sh ; and although small masts aren't going to give blazing 5G speeds, they are a pragmatic way of giving an enhanced network to more customers across wider areas.

Thank you for sharing Mark Jackson's view on the matter. Meanwhile, this is the "official" O2 press release :-
