Launched in 2003, 3G (which stands for the third generation of mobile networks) enabled mobile devices to access the internet, offered faster data transfer rates than previous technologies and provided greater cybersecurity.
As technology has developed over the last two decades, more advanced 4G and 5G technologies have been introduced, and mobile providers have decided to shut down the older 3G technology to make more space on the radio spectrum for the faster, more popular technologies. Vodafone led the charge by turning off its 3G network earlier this year, with Telstra scheduled to follow suit on August 31, 2024, and Optus on September 1, 2024.
