VodafoneThree Introduces New 5G+ Services
The new products are built on VodafoneThree's 5G+ network, which the company calls 5G Standalone and has expanded since the Vodafone and Three merger.
VodafoneThree says its latest launches represent a move toward giving customers different levels of connectivity performance rather than offering the same network experience to everyone.
The company is continuing an £11 billion, eight-year investment programme aimed at improving its UK network through 2034.
Vodafone SuperMobile Offers Faster Mobile Speeds
Vodafone SuperMobile is the company's new premium mobile connectivity service.
Customers using compatible plans and devices can access Vodafone's 5G+ FastTrack network, which is designed to provide higher performance when networks are busy.
Vodafone says SuperMobile can deliver speeds of up to four times those of its standard plans in high-demand areas.
The service is aimed at customers who want faster connectivity for activities such as streaming, gaming, downloads and other data-intensive mobile services.
Vodafone Introduces a Minimum Speed Guarantee
One of the main features of SuperMobile is its minimum speed guarantee.
Vodafone says eligible customers can receive a guaranteed minimum download speed of 15 Mbps when they are in 5G+ coverage and meet the relevant conditions.
If the service does not meet the applicable guarantee and the issue cannot be resolved, eligible customers can leave without paying an early exit fee, subject to Vodafone's terms and validation requirements.
This gives the new service a different approach from conventional mobile plans, where network performance can vary significantly depending on location and network demand.
How 5G+ FastTrack Works
Vodafone SuperMobile uses a dedicated FastTrack on Vodafone's 5G+ network.
Vodafone says 5G+ FastTrack combines four network technologies, including network slicing. In simple terms, slicing creates a dedicated virtual layer for eligible traffic, allowing Vodafone to allocate network resources differently when demand is high.
The company says this can help maintain connectivity performance in busy locations where large numbers of people are using mobile networks at the same time.
Vodafone TV Brings Entertainment Into One Platform
Alongside SuperMobile, VodafoneThree has announced Vodafone TV.
The new service is designed as an entertainment hub that brings live television, on-demand programming, streaming services, gaming, music and applications into one place.
Vodafone says the platform will include Netflix and HBO Max, along with Freely content, more than 150 additional live channels, more than 300 games and thousands of applications through the Google Play Store.
Vodafone TV Will Support 4K Entertainment
The Vodafone TV plug-in hub supports 4K picture quality, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos.
A companion app will allow customers to start a programme at home and continue it away from home. The app mirrors profiles, recommendations, favourites and gameplay across devices.
Vodafone TV Will Launch in October
Vodafone says Vodafone TV will become available in October 2026 to new and existing customers with eligible Vodafone home broadband, 5G Broadband or mobile plans.
The service is designed to work without requiring a traditional satellite dish or aerial, bringing different forms of entertainment together through a single platform.
Vodafone SuperMobile Also Targets Businesses
VodafoneThree is also expanding its new connectivity offering to business customers.
Vodafone Business has launched Vodafone SuperMobile for Business, anchored by what the company describes as the UK's first national business-only 5G+ network slice.
The National Business Slice provides dedicated capacity for business customers and separates business traffic from consumer demand.
Businesses Can Get Dedicated Network Capacity
Vodafone says businesses using the new service can benefit from up to four times faster speeds and committed performance targets, including in busy locations.
The service is intended to support organisations that depend on mobile connectivity for activities such as field operations, video collaboration, real-time reporting and other data-intensive work.
The company says the service can work with compatible standard business handsets, meaning organisations do not necessarily need specialist equipment to access the network benefits.
Vodafone Plans a Critical Connectivity Service
Vodafone Business also announced a National Critical Slice for blue light organisations and critical public services.
The service is planned for launch in 2027 and is designed to provide priority connectivity and assured performance for first responders and other organisations involved in mission-critical work.
Vodafone says the service could support emergency organisations that rely on reliable connectivity to access digital tools and information.
VodafoneThree Continues Its Network Investment
The new services are part of VodafoneThree's wider network investment programme.
The company has committed £11 billion to developing its UK network and says it is working toward 99.96% 5G Standalone population coverage by 2034.
VodafoneThree also says its combined network has eradicated 16,500 km² of not-spots since the merger.
What the New Services Mean for Customers
The introduction gives Vodafone customers new options for both connectivity and entertainment.
SuperMobile is focused on customers who want additional mobile network performance, while Vodafone TV brings multiple entertainment services together in one platform.
For businesses, the new network slicing services are intended to provide more predictable mobile performance in locations where network demand is high.
What Happens Next
Vodafone TV is expected to become available in October 2026, while Vodafone continues expanding its 5G+ network across the UK.
The company plans to launch its critical-connectivity service in 2027 as its 5G Standalone network expands.
Bottom Line
VodafoneThree has introduced Vodafone SuperMobile and announced Vodafone TV as part of a broader push to build new services around its 5G+ network.
SuperMobile focuses on faster and more predictable mobile connectivity, including a 15 Mbps minimum-speed guarantee for eligible customers, while Vodafone TV brings television, streaming, gaming and apps into one entertainment platform.
The company is also extending network slicing to business customers, creating dedicated capacity for organisations and planning a separate service for critical public services.
