The carrier says its 5G service for consumers will also be available in Boston, Las Vegas, Milwaukee, New York City, San Francisco, Birmingham, Bridgeport, Buffalo, Louisville, San Jose, and a few other markets "soon after." It expects to expand 5G coverage nationwide within the first half of 2020. Even though its 5G service is currently not available for consumers, AT&T has already published 5G coverage maps, so customers can see exactly where the service will be available in different cities.
AT&T will start pre-orders for its first low-band 5G device for consumers, the Galaxy Note 10+ 5G, on November 25. You can get the phone for a starting price of just $350 on a qualifying device installment plan, unlimited plan and trade-in. However, it hasn't revealed when the device will start shipping.
The carrier will be including 5G access at no extra cost with its recently launched Unlimited Elite and Unlimited Extra plans. AT&T Unlimited Elite plan costs $85 per month for a single line and offers 100GB of data usage before the speeds are throttled. On the other hand, AT&T Unlimited Extra plan will set you back $75 a month and give you 50GB data at ultra-fast speeds.
