Vodafone Qatar announced that it is the first
telecom operator in the country to deploy the latest data
technology evolution and features on its world class network.
Vodafone Qatar customers are now experiencing
enhanced data speeds that can reach up to 700Mbps which allows
for seamless online streaming and superfast downloads of movies
and games.
This is thanks to a number of capability
upgrades made to Vodafone Qatar’s network, rating its

network and expanding its 4G coverage to 98% of its outdoor
mobile sites, out of which 90% are on 4G+.
Vodafone Qatar upgraded more than 150 indoor
sites to 4G for a superb network experience in malls and other
commercial building. On top of this, Vodafone Qatar expects to
bring 5G services to reality by the end of the year,
accelerating the country towards becoming one of the most
connected and technologically advanced in the world.

Vodafone Qatar CEO, said: “Vodafone Qatar is firmly focused on
bringing world-class telecommunications and digital services to
Qatar and its people. Our continued investments in
