5G Ultra Wideband and 5G Nationwide

The phone can also connect to Verizon’s newly announced 5G Nationwide network, covering over 200 million customers in more than 1,800 markets3.

A fast phone, inside and out

Built for speed inside and out, a 48-megapixel Quad camera takes beautiful pictures in every situation. The ultra-wide lens fits 4x more of the scene into the picture, and the depth sensor makes subjects pop in photos, so they're in focus more than the background. The macro camera with ring flash gets closer to the subject, so photos also look sharp and bright.

Its 6.7-inch CinemaVision HD+ display lets video shine from edge to edge, and the 90 Hz screen refresh allows for quick switching between apps and a fluid gaming experience.
