Two years after the first smartphone with 5G connectivity hit the market it seems like every other phone launched is 5G-capable, that it's really hard to pick which is the best for you to use. It all depends on how you want to use your 5G phone.

5G is the next generation of mobile data connectivity, bringing super-fast speeds along with improved reliability and connection stability over 4G, making it great for tasks like online gaming, streaming movies and downloading large files quickly.

5G is now "nationwide." AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon are all advertising 5G as faster, stronger, and better—and you need a 5G phone to get on board. The reality of US 5G networks isn't as thrilling as the ads portray. AT&T's and Verizon's nationwide networks are slow, Verizon's good network is hard to find, and while T-Mobile's mid-band network is growing, it's still very much a work in progress.

In this roundup, we've picked out our favorite 5G phones from the year so far. In general, though, you should expect to get 5G with any new flagship or near-flagship phone being bought in 2021.
