Is there a reason why my phone is super slow or even cannot connect if it shows that I’m in a 5G area?

Available bandwidth due to the number of users is most likely.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.

Don't expect miracles with 5G None Stand Alone (the bulk of 5G) It requires 4G infrastructure to work and if that infrastructure is oversubscribed it has a knock on effect with the 5G element.

Where I am 5G NSA is not much faster than 4G. Walk uphill and pick up the 5G SA tower and the speed beats my home broadband

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.
