I don't have the full overview, but there are new "dumb" phones made that has 4G/5G, no? (Nokia 8210 seem to be one example, Punkt MP02 another)

Source for the 2G closure? 3G is getting silent in many areas but I've understood 2G usually stays to provide calls & sms in low coverage areas.

Interesting, thanks. How will they cover the northern Sweden, I wonde.

Me does too. The coverage looks better than expected for 4G though so we will see how it actually works in the mountains...

But is Edge still available then?

No

i suspect most countries will reatain 2g services as a fallback and for old infrastructure components
