AT&T Extends 5G Leadership Across the U.S.

Tens of Millions of People to Get AT&T 5G Network Coverage Soon with Nationwide 5G in 2020

AT&T* is putting the pieces in motion to bring 5G service to tens of millions of consumers and businesses this year, ahead of plans to offer nationwide 5G in the first half of 2020. Following our recent launch of AT&T Unlimited Extra and AT&T Unlimited Elite we are adding access to 5G service in these plans and will begin preorders for our first low-band 5G smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy Note10+ 5G, on Nov. 25.

“When we introduced the U.S. to 5G last year, we started with a business-first and experience-based strategy to lay the foundation for innovation to come,” said Thaddeus Arroyo, CEO, AT&T Consumer. “We’re now introducing consumers to the future of wireless with broad 5G service included in our best unlimited plans for 5G devices like the Samsung Galaxy Note10+ 5G.”

AT&T on Path to Nationwide 5G

Built on the Nation’s Best and also the Fastest Wireless Network,¹ we plan to offer nationwide 5G to consumers and businesses in the first half of next year.

In the coming weeks, our 5G network will launch over low-band spectrum in the Indianapolis, Pittsburgh, Providence, R.I., Rochester, N.Y., and San Diego market areas. We also plan to launch in several more markets, including Boston, Las Vegas, Milwaukee, New York City, San Francisco, Birmingham, Ala., Bridgeport, Conn., Buffalo, N.Y., Louisville, Ky., San Jose, Calif. and others.

Customers with a compatible 5G device will have confidence in knowing they will still be able to connect to the Nation’s Best and also the Fastest Wireless Network if they travel outside our available 5G coverage area.

In addition to our launch of 5G service over low-band spectrum, we continue to offer even faster and higher performing 5G+ over mmWave spectrum to businesses today in parts of 21 cities.³ We plan to reach parts of 30 cities with 5G+ in early 2020.
