News Summary

Bell has announced the launch of its 5G+ Advanced network, touted as the company’s fastest and most advanced to date, with capabilities that pave the way for future 6G technology. The network promises lower latency and theoretical speeds reaching 4.3Gbps, marking a significant upgrade from the previous 3,800MHz spectrum rollout, which achieved speeds up to 3.64Gbps. Currently, Bell’s 5G+ Advanced network is live across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, with expansions to Niagara. The new technology is available on select devices from Apple, Samsung, and Google. Despite recent competitive network performance comparisons with other major telecoms, Bell’s new rollout positions it as a leader in mobile network speed, amid past criticisms regarding employee layoffs.
