Verizon announced that its consumer and business customers can purchase the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G, Samsung’s first 5G smartphone in the U.S, exclusively with Verizon for a limited time.
The launch comes on the heels of Verizon’s announcement of 20 U.S. cities that will get 5G Ultra Wideband service in 2019. Verizon previously announced it would deploy 5G in select areas of more than 30 U.S. cities in 2019, and will roll out its 5G Home broadband internet service in some of these markets, as well. Additional 5G Ultra Wideband cities will be announced later this year.
When customers move outside Verizon’s 5G Ultra Wideband coverage area, the Galaxy S10 5G hands off the signal to Verizon’s 4G LTE network, the nation’s largest 4G LTE network.
The Galaxy S10 5G features a stunning 6.7” cinematic Dynamic AMOLED display, so you can immerse yourself in a whole new way. It also features the Galaxy S series’ most advanced, pro-grade camera system — six lenses, including a 3D Depth Sensing camera which uses Time of Flight technology to let users to capture video with a stunning blur effect.
A powerful 4,500 mAh all day intelligent battery optimizes usage based on how you live, to deliver intuitive peak performance throughout the day. And the Galaxy S10 5G comes with two storage options — 256GB and 512GB — so users can download movies, TV and photos at hyperfast speeds and store them all at their fingertips.
Anne O'Leary, CEO, Vodafone Ireland
Our event today highlights our ongoing commitment to this. Making Ireland’s first ever live holographic call over 5G was a demonstration of how this new technology could eventually transform how we interact with each other across borders and time zones.
John Griffin, Head of Ericsson Ireland
Ericsson is committed to R&D and a collaborative approach working with Vodafone to develop 5G in Ireland. The accelerator programme with NOVA UCD will be a springboard for entrepreneurship in the new 5G ecosystem.
