Apologies if this is already mentioned somewhere, but EE have a new manifesto with some really interesting investment news relating to 4G coverage, Wifi Calling and the future of 5G.

As part of its Network Coverage Manifesto, EE is committing to:

- Voice and 4G data coverage across 90% of the UK’s geography
- Using Micro Network technology to make phone calls and mobile data available in 1,500 communities that are not currently connected by either reliable mobile or high speed broadband
- Mobile voice coverage of more than 90% of the UK’s 245,000 miles of roads by 2017, up from the current coverage of around 82%, focusing on motorways first, then A and B roads, as well as specific 4G expansion to cover the country’s busiest train routes
- Deployment of low frequency 800MHz spectrum across the EE rural network to expand the EE’s reach by more than 1,500 square miles – an area bigger than the Lake District and Peak District National Parks combined
- A call completion rate of 99.6% as the network carries more than 150 million calls per day
- Introduction of 4G Voice – or VoLTE – to enable phone calls over 4G data services to thousands of homes and businesses that have never been covered by EE before
- WiFi Calling enabled on a range of iOS, Microsoft Windows and Android devices to enable mobile calls and texts for every home, office and recreational venue with broadband from 2Mbps
- Double speed 4G to 90% of the UK population, enabling data speeds up to 60Mbps to smartphones and tablets
- 4G+ to twenty of the UK’s busiest cities, doubling capacity for every user and enabling 150Mbps speeds to customers with the latest devices
- A foundation for technology and research leadership to position EE and the UK as global leaders in the 5G future
