Why EE for NR6?

EE has made solid 5G inroads across Norwich, reaching 67% of premises in NR6. While not blanket coverage, most streets and town centres are covered — and 4G fallback at 98% keeps reliability high throughout.

The runner-up in NR6 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.
