Verizon pushes 5G update for select Samsung Galaxy phones, launches 5G Nationwide network

Earlier this week, Verizon announced that they have launched its 5G Nationwide network and have added more cities to its list of 5G Ultra Wideband coverage. It seems like Big Red is on a roll as it has released updates for Samsung devices to support the newly launched 5G Nationwide network. 

The devices that have gotten an update include the following: 

• Samsung Galaxy A51 5G UW

• Samsung Galaxy A71 5G UW

• Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G

• Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G

• Samsung Galaxy S20 5G UW

• Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G

• Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G

In the coming days and weeks, Verizon will be releasing updates to select 5G Android phones. But the new 5G phones that will be released in the future will already support 5G Nationwide out of the box. This includes the Motorola One 5G UW, which will be launched this week.

Apart from launching 5G Nationwide network, Verizon has added new cities to its list of 5G Ultra Wideband coverage. The new cities include the following:

• Arlington, TX

• Ann Arbor, MI

• Anaheim, CA

• Baltimore, MD

• Fort Wayen, IN

• Hartford, CT

• Jersey City, NJ

• Las Vegas, NV

• Lousiville, KY

• Milwaukee, WI

• Oklahoma City, OK

• Philadelphia, PA

• Raleigh, NC

• Richmond, VA

• San Francisco, CA

• Sarasota, FL

• St. Louis, MO

• Syracuse, NY

• Tucson, AZ

The wireless carrier hopes to expand this number of cities to 60 before the year ends.
