LONDON—Britain’s biggest mobile operator EE aims to launch the country’s first 5G service next week, but it will not offer Huawei handsets until the Chinese company’s future becomes clear following its row with the United States.
EE, owned by former British telecoms monopoly BT, said it planned to launch the 5G network in six cities, including London, from May 30. It aims to have 1,500 5G sites by the end of 2019.
