Well, the 3G networks of Telekom and Vodafone are not so good in Germany. You can get along with them in populated areas and along autobahns, but in the countryside you often fall back to 2G/EDGE. Some years ago they stopped building up 3G and put all efforts into 4G/LTE. If you're hiking a lot in the countryside and need Google Maps for instance, better use it offline or buy a SIM card that is on LTE too: Magenta Mobil Start by Telecom or Vodafone CallYa. With the Telefónica network it doesn't make such a big difference though between 3G and 4G as their 3G is better built up and their 4G is often congested.
