Which network does Smartmobil use? Network coverage and quality
If you want to use a Smartmobil flat rate, you should first find out about the mobile network, coverage and quality.
Smartmobil: Which networks are used?
- All LTE tariffs and the Flat XS 500S use the O2 network. The All-In tariffs, the Flat XS and Flat XM use the Vodafone network.
- In the CHIP network test 2014, O2 shared third and last place with E-Plus. Vodafone made it into second place just behind Telekom.
- With Smartmobil you get standard tariffs in the Vodafone network with telephone, SMS and Internet flat rate in the UMTS network. You can't complain about coverage and quality here.
- In the O2 network, Smartmobil offers a service that is not yet one of O2's strengths. The LTE network was expanded, but in many cases it is not much faster than the UMTS network. The availability of mobile data also often leaves something to be desired on country roads and motorways.
