5G connectivity was introduced to iPhone since the launch of the iPhone 12 running iOS 14 which launched on September 2020. The majority of the US telecommunication providers such as AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile support 5G with very high internet speeds.
If you have an iPhone 12 or later, the 5G service is enabled by default, which you can turn off by going to the Settings app as follows.
- Go to the iPhone Settings App
- Now tap on Cellular
- Now tap on "Cellular Data Options"
- Now select "Voice & Data"
- Here you can select "LTE" (4G) to disable 5G
