Student life often means frequent moves and a tight budget. At a time when more and more French people are shunning fixed subscriptions in favor of mobile subscriptions, Free seems to have perfectly understood these issues by launching its new Freebox.
The French operator hits hard with an offer that combines the power of 5G, the latest generation of WiFi and a complete TV catalog, all without commitment and with ultra-simplified installation.
A box that focuses on simplicity
No more appointments with technicians and complex installations. The Free 5G Box arrives directly at your home in 2-3 working days, ready to use. Just plug it in to enjoy immediately a very high-speed connection (provided of course that you live in a place where Free’s 5G would be efficient).
A simple QR code scan connects all your devices to WiFi. Ease of use that perfectly meets the needs of students who regularly change accommodation.
Downlink speeds of up to 1.5 Gbit/s and upstream speeds of up to 130 Mbit/s. Certified WiFi 7 allows you to connect up to 100 devices simultaneously, ideal for shared accommodation. The box also has 3 Ethernet ports and a USB port for connecting an external hard drive.
An offer that makes the difference
Free offers a price of €29.99 per month for one year, then €39.99, still without commitment. The operator even covers up to €50 of the termination costs of the old operator. Be careful though, the operator itself imposes 29 euros in commissioning fees, and 19 euros in termination fees.
The offer includes the OQEE by Free application which gives access to 230 TV channels, unlimited replay and even OQEE Ciné with more than 600 films and series.
The ecological dimension has not been forgotten. The box has a white shell made from more than 90% recycled material. The packaging is 100% recyclable and even the protective film is biodegradable, being made from rice paper.
Benefits that extend to mobile
The Box 5G offer comes with advantages over Free mobile plans. Subscribers can benefit from up to 4 Free 5G Plans at a reduced price: €9.99 per month for one year, then €15.99, instead of €19.99.
The Box 5G offer is available now, but strangely, it is only limited to households not eligible for fiber.
