It's about providing a better experience for Boost Mobile and Telstra customers.
When 3G launched in 2006, we used our mobile devices for calls, texting and accessing basic information online. Since then, technology and the way we use our phones has significantly changed and, as a result, traffic on Telstra’s 3G network has declined significantly.
Closing the 3G network allows Telstra to repurpose spectrum expand the faster 5G network and open the door to more digital opportunities.
