Customers will need a 5G-capable phone, such as the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ 5G, also available from AT&T, to take advantage of faster internet speeds. AT&T will start shipping the device today to those who pre-ordered it; those that haven't can now buy it in AT&T retail locations or online.

Note that AT&T is now launching the slower, low-band 5G, which the company says is good enough for mobile customers but not for high-traffic areas such as arenas, shopping centers, and campuses. These will be better served by AT&T's high-band 5G+, which is currently available for businesses and collaborators in parts of 23 cities, but there's no word on when it'll be widely available. There's also a third, similarly-branded service on offer from AT&T, called 5GE, but that's essentially the company's 4G LTE Advanced which is slower than real 5G.
