In this digital age, technology is constantly advancing. One of the most significant advancements in mobile connectivity is 5G. 5G technology offers faster internet speeds and improved network performance, making it highly sought after by smartphone users. Read on to find out which iPhones support 5G.
What is 5G?
Before we list the iPhones that support 5G, let’s first understand what 5G is. 5G stands for fifth-generation wireless technology. It’s twice as fast as 4G, eliminates lagging, and offers more reliable coverage. While 4G is still available in older phones, 5G has become the norm in most smartphones these days. To be blunt; it’s only a matter of time before 4G becomes obsolete.
Which iPhones offer 5G?
5G entered the iPhone lineup with the release of the iPhone 12 series. It’s therefore available for the iPhone 12 range and newer models, such as:
- The iPhone 13 range
- The iPhone 14 range
- The iPhone SE (2022)
Here’s an overview of the iPhones that offer 5G connectivity as of August 2023.

Which phone is best for you?
There are various factors that can help you figure out which phone is best for you. Some factors you should consider are:
- The phone’s features
- Your budget
- Whether you want a refurbished phone (and if so, its condition)
Buying a refurbished product has numerous benefits. Not only can you get a quality refurbished device for a fraction of the original price, but it’s also better for the environment. Here at the iOutlet, we’ve also teamed up with One Tree Planted to plant one tree every day.
