EE 5G NR SA (Stand Alone) Sites

[EssexBoyEE]

I see EE are now running some 5G Stand Alone Sites in London, Bristol and Cardiff, anyone have any news or updates on this? are these closed Trial Sites or are they the First Sites to actually be used as part of the 5G Network Roll Out in NR Stand Alone mode?

Any idea if EE are going to introduce 5G SA in Swindon anytime soon? 

TIA

They don’t have 5G SA anywhere in the UK yet and they don’t seem to be in a hurry. Next year, Septemberish for London and a few other cities if we would look in a crystal ball.

That isn't what's being said elsewhere in this forum . 

Or maybe the poster was referring to Vodafone by mistake. 

Thanks anyway

Yes, EE is testing and preparing for 5G SA but they are not close to a comercial offer. Even Vodafone who bragged they have 5G SA with their 5G Ultra is not enabling it when customers request it.

So still awaiting an update on this, but meanwhile I've discovered that one of my local EE Mast is also pumping out 5G SA as well as the usual 5G NSA, I've also heard (elsewhere though other sources) that EE are now sending out 5G SA Sims to selected Customers for Trialing, obviously keen to try I had a chat with CS and then Tech to see how I could jump on the Wagon, but, they didn't seem have a clue about what I was on about, bless them, anyone on here have any pointers or info on this to move foward please.
