Coverage and networks

Vietnam has three major networks: Viettel, Vinaphone and MobiFone. Viettel has by far the best and broadest coverage, including in remote areas and mountain regions. Vinaphone scores excellently on 5G speed in the cities, while MobiFone is mainly stable in urban and tourist areas. Networks: Viettel, Vinaphone, MobiFone.

For a round trip with navigation, social media and maps, around 1 GB per day is enough. Those travelling between cities, islands and mountains benefit from Viettel coverage for stable reach.

On islands such as Phu Quoc and Cat Ba there is good coverage, especially via Viettel and Vinaphone, but in remote mountain villages the signal can become weaker.
