Like we have always spelt, Uganda’s network connectivity is getting better by the day. And this is evident with the recent MTN Uganda 5G rollout, witnessed through the second half of 2023.
If you own a 5G-enabled device, you are the ideal candidate for this latest generation of connectivity. But with options like the Samsung Galaxy A-series including the A14, A34, and A54, choosing the right one for your 5G experience is even easier.
Well, if you are wondering how to make the most of 5G with any of the three; worry not. Because, we’re diving deep into what makes each phone special on MTN Uganda’s 5G network!
Samsung Galaxy A14 5G
For those seeking the thrill of 5G without breaking the bank, the A14 is your champion. It might be an entry-level smartphone, but its Exynos 1330 processor packs a punch for everyday tasks, making web browsing, social media, and streaming a breeze on blazing-fast network.
Plus, the 2MP depth sensor adds a touch of professionalism to your portraits with bokeh effects that rival pricier phones.
But the real star of the show is the 5G connectivity. Download movies in seconds, stream live games without lag, and experience blazing-fast video calls – all on MTN Uganda’s reliable 5G infrastructure.
The A14 might be the budget option, but it sure knows how to party on the 5G highway!
Samsung Galaxy A34 5G
Step up your game with the A34, where cutting-edge tech meets sleek design. Ditch the TFT LCD of the A14 and immerse yourself in the vibrant colors and sharp details of the Super AMOLED display.
Scrolling through social media or watching movies feels like stepping into another world. And speaking of worlds, capture them all with the ultrawide camera that lets you fit more friends, landscapes, or breathtaking Ugandan vistas into your shots.
But the A34 doesn’t just impress with its looks. The processor might not be the top dog, but it’s still a reliable companion for most tasks, and the 5G connectivity ensures you’ll be zipping through MTN Uganda’s network with ease.
This phone is the perfect blend of style, performance, and affordability for the discerning 5G user.
Samsung Galaxy A54 5G
For those who demand the best, the A54 is your undisputed king. The Exynos 1380 processor is a powerhouse, handling even the most demanding games and multitasking sessions without breaking a sweat.
And when the lights dim, the main camera’s Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) kicks in, ensuring your low-light and action shots stay crisp and clear.
But the A54’s crown jewel is its 120Hz refresh rate display. Every scroll, swipe, and animation feels buttery smooth, making using your phone a pure pleasure. And let’s not forget the 5G – on this phone, it’s like having a lightning bolt in your pocket.
Experience downloads at warp speed, lag-free gaming, and crystal-clear video calls, all courtesy of MTN Uganda’s 5G prowess.

Key considerations to make when using 5G in Uganda
It’s essential to note that 5G coverage is still currently limited to specific areas within Kampala, so being within these coverage zones is crucial to access the 5G network. Obviously the expansion is going on progressively but, to fully embrace 5G, you’ll need to ensure you are in the best zone.
Additionally, you may need a specific SIM card for 5G access, so it’s advisable to ensure that you have an upgraded SIM — to at least 4G connectivity.
Other factors kept constant, keep your phone and device software updated to the latest versions for optimal performance; and monitor your data usage to ensure you stay within your plan limits.
