How many mobile subscriptions in Denmark have 5G?
5G subscriptions and mobile data use
Short answer
In the second half of 2024, 85.8 % of standard mobile subscriptions in Denmark had access to 5G. For subscriptions used only for data, the share was 63.1 %. 5G carried 41.2 % of all mobile data traffic in that period. An average subscription used 26.9 GB of mobile data per month, 20.8 % more than a year earlier. From 2025 the telecom statistics are published once a year instead of twice.
Why
- 85.8 % of standard plans had 5G in late 2024.

Details
About 1.5 million TB of data were sent and received on mobile networks in Denmark in the second half of 2024.
Tip
If you have an older plan, ask your operator whether 5G is included; your phone also has to support it.
What may differ
The shares rise every year, so figures for 2025 and 2026 will be higher than these.
Common misconception
Most mobile data in Denmark already goes over 5G.
What actually happens
In late 2024, 5G carried 41.2 % of mobile data, so most traffic still went over other networks.
