OnePlus 8 Pro Not compatible with 5G on Three in Ireland

[LeeroyJ]

Hi there,

Is there any reason why the OnePlus 8 Pro isn't compatible with the 5G network in Ireland?
The band Three uses is N78 which is supported by the device.
I paid for a 5G booster and bought the device but for some reason it isn't compatible.

Thank you.

@Raymond121 we're continuing to work with manufacturers to enable 5G phones. As @Three_Laur mentioned, we don't have a timeframe right now.

Hi @Raymond21 we don't currently have an update on when the 5G will be available. It's still being worked on between our devices team & OnePlus.
