What is 5G?

5G, which stands for the fifth generation, is the evolution of the existing 4G network. It will enable richer and faster experiences, such as mobile HD video, mobile AR and VR, and many other apps!

 

 
5G won’t replace 4G. Instead, it will be an additional layer of our network that will support our ambitions to connect our customers to 4G & 5G networks 100% of the time. Farewell, older networks!

 

 
The best thing about using 5G is the speed ⚡ – faultless streaming, less lag in busy areas, and a much more consistent and reliable mobile experience. Downloads will be up to 20x faster and streams will start more quickly.

 

 
To reap the benefits of 5G, make sure your mobile phone is 5G-ready. Once you insert your Virgin Mobile SIM, we’ll work our tech magic to unlock the 5G network on your phone within 24 hours. You’ll notice the 5G network indicator on your phone screen when you enter a 5G covered area.

 

 
There are no extra costs for 5G on Virgin Mobile at this point. That means you can enjoy lightning-quick speeds at the same price as your current plan.
