For blazingly fast 4G and great coverage, EE delivers. We gave it a 4-star rating in our network review and we're big fans of its Wi-Fi calling feature for making calls and sending texts when you don't have a signal. It's a network that loves dishing out a freebie or two with free subscriptions to BT Sport and Apple Music included with most contracts. And for Black Friday, EE is offering a FREE Nintendo Switch when you opt for a contract with a brand-new handset like the Huawei Mate 20 Pro or the Nokia 7.1 .
The Nintendo Switch is "easily the best console of this generation" according to our 5-star review and currently retails for £279 so you stand to make a cash in on a quality console, whether you plan to keep it for yourself or impress someone with a Christmas gift.
