Hi , we've got one 5g mast in Aldershot which I walked passed today ( its on the outskirts of town so not much use to anyone but hey it counts towards the towns they've installed 5g in so a con really  ! ) , my Note 10 plus 5g showed the 5g symbol , did a speed test which was 581 down and 48 , started updating some apps , received a call and it switched to 3g ( which on Three UK network is H+ ) ? Does anyone now why ? Is this the case everywhere or just Three UK ? Not much point having a phone you've paid extra for 5g version that reverts to 3g when a call comes in ?

Maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but the phone is only switching data to 3G. You can't call and use data at the same time; your old 4G phone would switch to 2G when you make or receive a call (which basically means you have no data when calling). If you end the call, you'll be back on your high speed 5G again :smiling-face:

Thats not the case as you can select VoLte which is voice calls using data , also I can search Internet,  ebay, amazon etc while making calls no problem , the issue was with 5g . I spoke to Three Uk and they were looking into it .
