The press service of the National Commission for Electronic Communications in Ukraine reported that in 2025, mobile operators will begin gradually shutting down their 3G networks to make room for 4G frequencies.
Operators will notify customers before switching off 3G in each specific region.
“If your phone already supports 4G, no action is required. If your smartphone does not support 4G/LTE, consider replacing your device with a more modern one. This will allow you to stay connected and use the mobile Internet without restrictions,” the regulator emphasizes.
The National Commission added that the disconnection of 3G will not affect the ability to make calls, send SMS, or use other basic services. However, for high-speed Internet, it is worth switching to 4G now to avoid future inconveniences.
