Customers are getting more 5G in more places on their phones and in their homes. 5G Ultra Wideband mobility service is now available in Harrisburg, PA; Athens, GA; Orlando, FL and Fremont, CA, which means 5G Ultra Wideband is now available in parts of 82 cities. 5G Home is now available in five additional cities: Fremont, CA; Orlando, FL; Pensacola, FL; Sarasota, FL and Niagara Falls, NY. With the addition of these new cities, Verizon’s 5G Home Internet is now available in parts of 57 cities.

Verizon’s 5G UWB coverage is known to be the fastest version of the next-gen cellular standard – although rarer to find – with speeds up to 1 Gbps and average speeds around 700 Mbps.

Verizon’s 5G Home Internet offers speeds up to 1Gbps and average download speeds of 300 Mbps. Plans start at just $50 for Verizon customers and $70 for those without an existing Verizon plan.

And Verizon is even covering up to $500 of early termination fees to switch to the 5G home plan.
