Best mobile network in CB2 Cambridge postcode district

Cross-referencing EE, Vodafone, O2 and Three using Ofcom 2024 data, EE leads the field in Cambridge. In this mixed urban-rural area, EE achieves an overall coverage score of 83/100 — driven by good 5G coverage (66%) and rock-solid 4G at 100%. 5G and 4G scores are closely matched, reflecting a mature, stable network.

EE clearly leads O2 by 8 points overall. While O2 reaches 51% on 5G and 99% on 4G in Cambridge, it falls short of EE's combined performance across all bands. Three and Vodafone round out the field at 73 and 71 respectively.

EE has made solid 5G inroads across Cambridge, reaching 66% of premises in CB2. While not blanket coverage, most streets and town centres are covered — and 4G fallback at 100% keeps reliability high throughout.

The runner-up in CB2 is O2 at 75/100 (51% 5G / 99% 4G). The margin is noticeable but not enormous. EE edges ahead on 5G depth; if your plan is with O2, 4G performance should still be solid.
