Just recently, we announced our 5G Reduced Capability (RedCap) technology is also nationwide, marking a significant step forward in the advancement and expansion of our 5G network. The new Apple Watch Series 11, Apple Watch Ultra 3, and Apple Watch SE 3 are all available on our nationwide 5G RedCap network and customers can look forward to a growing portfolio of devices. 

We put the customer first. Our priority is to provide the best network experience, regardless of the technology. We focus on ensuring every innovation we introduce meets our high standards for quality and reliability instead of rushing something that might not be ready.

Today, 5G Standalone networks have now reached a level of maturity that enables our nationwide expansion. This growth is powered by an open and virtualized network, which enables us to scale efficiently and foster collaboration within an open ecosystem of partners. By embracing this open and virtualized network architecture, we are not only modernizing our infrastructure but also unlocking significant advantages for our customers and partners. This approach not only accelerates our ability to roll out new technologies like 5G Standalone but also helps ensure our customers benefit from a network that is robust, innovative, and designed with their needs in mind.

With 5G Standalone now nationwide, we’ve set the stage for the next wave of innovation, creativity, and connection. I couldn’t be prouder of our teams who made this possible, and we’ll continue to scale 5G Standalone over time and set the stage for next generation applications and services.
