Kinda makes you wish we had that 5g/4g add-on for older phones

It’s new roma for the Nokia N8 if you still have one. It’s a 2010 phone so no idea if it has 5g or even 4g. Meh. I still have an N9 which is also unusable today because the 3g network here is gone.

Yep. In my country 3G is shutdown. Without 4G and VoLTE you cannot make calls.

They’ve been thinking about doing that here in Finland too, but so much non-phone stuff is using the older networks that while 3G is mostly gone, 2G for calls and texts is still going to be supported to at least 2029.
Systems like the EU mandatory eCall car emergency call thingy.
