5G is the fifth generation of mobile network technology, designed to deliver faster speeds, lower latency (response time), and greater connectivity. Compared to 4G, 5G supports more devices and allows for real-time, data-heavy applications like virtual reality, remote surgery, autonomous systems, and advanced industrial automation.

The benefits of 5G go far beyond faster internet. 5G enables:

• Seamless virtual meetings and events: ideal for Rwanda’s MICE industry.
• Smart healthcare supporting telemedicine, remote diagnostics, and connected health devices.
• Immersive education: enabling e-learning with virtual classrooms and interactive content.
• Precision agriculture: through real-time data for crop and livestock monitoring.
• Smarter cities and industries: this is possible because of the low-latency, high-capacity connections.
• Fiber-Like Speeds for All: Seamless Content Access for Businesses and Homes

We are announcing the beginning of our 5G journey, with our firstlive 5G experience at the Kigali Convention Centre (KCC). This marks an important step toward building a future-ready 5G network that supports Rwanda’s national priorities for digital transformation.

You can experience MTN’s 5G network at KCC, KABC and Kigali Heights. We plan to expand to additional high-impact locations in Kigali in the coming weeks, and eventually across the country.

Any MTN customer using a 5G-compatible smartphone in a 5G coverage area can connect. Currently supported devices include:

• TECNO, itel, and Infinix (Transsion) smartphones manufactured from 2022.
• iPhones with 5G capability from iPhone 12.
• Samsung S22.

We’re working closely with Samsung to enable their 5G devices as well in latest Samsung.

Yes, provided you have a 5G-enabled smartphone and are within a 5G coverage zone. No special SIM or plan is required at this stage; just continue using your regular MTN data bundles.

No, your existing MTN 4G SIM works just fine with 5G. All you need is a compatible device and to be within a 5G-enabled location.

You can look under Network Settings on your device or consult your phone’s specifications. You’re also welcome to visit any MTN service centre for assistance.

You can access 5G with your current data bundles, just as you would with 3G or 4G.

We are partnering with government institutions, startups, developers, and private sector players to co-create 5G-driven solutions. Our goal is to address national priorities in sectors such as health, education, agriculture, and MICE, and to support innovation that improves lives and livelihoods.
