It's worth checking the 5g signal first in the place if your phone can do it or borrow a mates but it would probably be worth getting a 5g wifi hub so you don't need to have a phone running as a hotspot all day. On Three you can get an unlimited data sim on a 1 month rolling contract for £26 a month although 5g wifi routers aren't exactly cheap so could be better to get a 12 month contract with a free one instead.

Thanks. Didn't even know 5G routers were a thing. None of the providers can get close to £26 a month for unlimited data though. 100gb a month might be ok, but EE want £75 a month for that, Vodafone want £30 plus £100 up front. I might just order the cheapest phone through Virgin and give it a go for the 14 day cooling off period and see how the experience is.

Has anyone actually used their 5G phone as their main connection? I just called Virgin Mobile and the guy I spoke to said their unlimited data packages are truly unlimited and I'd be able to tether multiple devices and use it like a normal connection.
The studio space I rent has a slow connection (12mb download / 0.6mb upload!) that costs me £25 a month and I can't get a fibre connection installed as it's a unit within a building and no company wants to get tangled up in the logisitics of that. It's in the centre of Bristol though so if I can get Virgin's cheapest 5G phone for £26 month with unlimited data then I can just stick it in the window and forget about it.
