How to Know if My Mobile is 5G or Cannot Use 5G Networks

More and more mobiles with 5G technology are presented in the market, something that will continue to increase in the coming months, although not all users worry about knowing it until the moment when they need to know if they Hiring a 5G rate is useful for them or they have to change their mobile to get the most out of it. To find out there are several things we can do.

The first and possibly the simplest recommendation that we can make is to take a look at the technical sheet of your smartphone on our site, where you will find everything you need to know about the specific model and of course its compatibility with 5G networks in all models available in Spain. Although there are other methods to find out that we are going to show you.

In the mobile box we have the information

One way that we have within our reach to know if the mobile has 5G technology is by taking a look at the box. Most manufacturers include a logo that identifies the 5G in the box, in some on the front very large to see it with the naked eye and in other cases with a logo embedded together with the barcode and other details such as the model in question.

In case we come across this logo or identifying badge that refers to 5G, we can be sure that it will integrate it. For those of you who cannot find it, there is no need to worry, since some brands do not add this logo on the box and we have to go to the next option to check it.

Check if your mobile accepts 5G networks

The option that will not fail us to check the 5G compatibility of a mobile is to access the positive system settings and follow the steps that we will show you. This on Android can vary aesthetically, although the steps are similar:

  • We start by accessing the Settings.
  • Then we touch on Mobile networks and / or Connection.
  • Next in Mobile data.
  • Among the options we can touch on Preferred network type.

If 5G is integrated in the networks, it is because we have it available, but we do not remember to choose the option if we do not already have the contracted 5G rate or otherwise the battery consumption will be much higher and will not offer us any advantage.

Does my iPhone have 5G technology?

In the case of Apple mobiles we cannot check it in the box, as this information is not included, but nevertheless we can do the same check in the Settings that we saw in Android. In this case, the steps to find out if an iPhone has 5G technology are the following:

  • We enter the Settings.
  • Click on Mobile data.
  • Finally we choose Options.

When touching on Voice and data we have to find the 5G option, because in case of seeing only LTE it means that our iPhone is not prepared for the highest browsing speed.
