Following the expansion, EE predicts a record-breaking month of 4G sales in the run up to Christmas.

EE Chief Executive Officer Olaf Swantee said that smartphones and tablets on 4GEE would be a popular present this Christmas as people across the U.K. continue to embrace mobile living.

According to 4GEE Mobile Living Index, 39 percent of 4GEE customers say they will buy their gifts on their smartphone or tablet this year – up from 15 percent last year – with fashion, electronics and books the most popular purchases.
