While 5G has now been launched across the EU, European markets are not showing the same levels of adoption reported in North America and East Asia, where operators have moved beyond non-standalone 5G and are rolling out standalone networks. This infographic highlights the differences between the regions in terms of 5G adoption levels, and contrasts the levels of operator capex for 2021.
