Quiz Of The Week: UK Mobile Operators

The smartphone is now the primary device of choice for UK Internet users according to Ofcom, the latest development in the UK’s three decade-long love affair with the mobile phone.

Part of the reason for this is the spread of 4G networks, which now cover 89.5 percent of the UK. The UK’s four major operators – EE, O2, Three and Vodafone – are all working to enhance coverage and get more people on lucrative LTE contracts.

Mobile data has changed the way people work, communicate and entertain themselves, but what do you know about the operators that power these services and the UK’s history in mobile?

We’ve come a long way from having two operators at the start to the four networks and numerous Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) we have today, and with the proposed mergers of BT and EE and O2 and Three, there will be plenty of talking points across the next 12 months.

So, do you know your One2Ones from your O2s?
