Portable 5G broadband without the faff of a fixed line, the ZTE U50 sits in the same space as pocket hotspots from Netgear and Huawei, but with WiFi 6 support for smoother sharing across multiple devices. This one is used from CeX, and the “Used (3)” grade typically means noticeable cosmetic wear and signs of use, but it should be fully working and tested. You are also covered by CeX’s 5 year warranty, which takes some of the sting out of buying pre-owned kit.
Who is this for?
Useful for travel, temporary home internet, or as a backup connection when your main broadband drops. It’s noted as suitable for Three UK, and it should be unlocked for other networks, but it’s still worth checking your SIM compatibility and 5G coverage before relying on it.
- 5G mobile broadband: faster speeds where 5G is available, with 4G fallback in weaker areas.
- WiFi 6: better handling of busy households, laptops, phones, and consoles on one hotspot.
