Vodafone Red plans give you access to 5G, along with larger data options and some advanced features. Compare Vodafone Red and Vodafone Basics plans.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"In the UK, Vodafone offers ‘Red’ plans<\/a> from \u00a321 per month, as well as cheaper ‘Basics’ plans<\/a> that start from just \u00a37 per month<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On the Red plans, you’ll have access to Vodafone’s 5G network, and a choice of data allowances that go up to 150GB per month. In contrast, the Vodafone Basics plans are restricted to 4G coverage and a maximum of 100GB data per month.<\/p>\n

For most people, we still think Vodafone Basics is a better value choice. Although you’re restricted to 4G coverage, this can still give you download speeds of around 25Mbps on average. That’s fast enough for pretty much anything you’d like to do on your phone, including streaming Ultra HD video. The Basics plans go up to 100GB per month, which is enough for most users (as the average UK mobile user only needs 8GB per month). The shorter 12-month contract also gives you more flexibility, compared to Vodafone Red.<\/p>\n

If you’re looking for a more fully-featured option, Vodafone Red gives you access to 5G with download speeds that are up to 10 times faster than 4G. You can also choose from a range of data plans going up to 150GB per month, but you’ll need to commit to a 24-month contract for the best deal. You’ll also be able to add Vodafone OneNumber<\/a> (for smartwatches, tablets and Alexa), and you’ll have access to international calls and premium-rate calls (additional charges will apply).<\/p>\n

In this article, we’ll compare Vodafone Red and Vodafone Basics, looking at the features available on each and the best value deals. We’ll also look at how you can keep your phone number when you move to Vodafone.<\/p>\n
