o2 5G speeds vs Spusu

[madasaf1sh]

So whilst sat charging Jolteon aka the Polestar 2 at the Porsche Centre in Sheffield, I thought I would do a comparison between o2 and Spusu who are an MVNO running on EE.. 

The speeds from o2 and Spusu Shocked me in a good way 

o2 topped out at 269Mbps

Pixel Fold

Spusu - topped out at 504Mbps 

Galaxy Z Flip 5

Upload speeds on both are rubbish.. 

Not bad from Spusu and they do esims and under £10 for 20Gb of Data...

The surprise there was what you squeezed out of O2. I have never experienced anything like that on O2, although my local Three "Pole of Wonder" does sometimes approach your Spusu speeds. 

I suppose that O2 realise that Porsche drivers don't like hanging around.   🤣

Good job you didn't check in Lancashire.....

I am considering spusu after this!

The speed on O2 in is shocking! In a good way, as I would not expect to see that!

@AlexanderMTTH 

Just be aware you cant get 5G on a Pixel Device, as they haven't got the config yet pushed from Google, and there are some good deals via MoneySupermarket, starting at £2.90 per month for 1GB

Thank you @madasaf1sh. I will be mindful. 

I'll keep you posted on how it goes! Are you still happy with spusu after these months>?

Looking at the deals on 30 day contracts it seems that customers would be better off with them than O2 PAYG, especially with 5G, Volte and WiFi Calling.

@AlexanderMTTH 

Very happy, Customer Services is outstanding and the esim arrived in 5 minutes... OTP's can be a bit hit and miss but I dont use them as my main sim.. 

@Enlli 

I have recommended them to quite a few people...

[AlexanderMTTH]

Thanks both. Ordered it now. Let's see how it works. 

Have a great week all!

Hello. 

I switched, so thank you for the advice. I have been with them for almost a month. The network is OK, and there is better coverage than O2. But a small thing seems to stop me from fully keeping this network. There is a delay when I make a call... as in the call starts, but it takes ages to ring. 

Most importantly, although there is coverage, I randomly receive SMSs that I missed calling without the phone actually ringing. Did yo experience that as well?
