Infographic: One in five mobile connections will be on 5G by 2025
5G investments and rollouts gather pace but 4G remains on top
Our latest infographic presents the outlook for 5G across the world. As of January 2020, mobile 5G is now commercially available from 46 operators in 24 markets worldwide.

The infographic also shows how 5G's share of investment is set to vary by region over the next five years.
