Wide range of 5G devices
Since the start of April, selected Sunrise 5G
pioneers are benefiting from a high-speed
Internet connection through the air, either at
home or in the office, with the Sunrise Internet
Box 5G. PCs, laptops, tablets and smartphones
are easily connected to the Sunrise Internet
Box 5G via Wi-Fi. With 5G, customers can
generally enjoy an Internet connection that is
between 10 and 20 times faster than with their
previous (DSL) landline connection.
In more than 262 towns and cities,
customers can also take advantage of the
new mobile network generation with the
latest 5G smartphones, with improvements
such as faster surfing, quicker response times
of apps, video streaming, or online gaming.
