#Kievstar

Major mobile operator Kyivstar is raising tariff prices for some subscribers starting October 8, 2026, due to rising network maintenance and restoration costs.

Kyivstar has become the first Ukrainian operator to fully complete mass 3G operation. The freed-up frequency resources have been redirected to strengthening 4G, where the average speed is already approaching 100 Mbit/s.

📡 Starting August 18, 2026, Kyivstar will switch off the 3G network in several regions of Ukraine. Frequencies will be reallocated to strengthen 4G and prepare for 5G. What subscribers need to know: 📱 Check smartphone settings: enable VoLTE and auto-network selection. 🆕 If you have an old phone, replace your SIM card with a USIM (free at stores). 🚀 This will improve internet speed and call quality. Don't miss these changes to avoid losing connectivity!
