Are you getting the best video quality your Verizon wireless plan has to offer? It turns out that you might not be automatically receiving the highest-quality video available on your plan. According to Verizon’s “Important Plan Information” document, there is a crucial setting that subscribers need to enable to unlock the full potential of their video streaming capabilities.
Here are some key points to consider:
– Subscribers to Verizon’s Unlimited Ultimate and Unlimited Plus plans can enjoy up to 4K UHD Video streaming in the 5G Ultra Wideband (5G UWB) coverage area.
– Inside the 5G and 4G LTE coverage areas, these subscribers can stream videos in 1080p HD quality.
– To access these higher resolutions, subscribers must toggle on the “unlimited premium network access” switch in My Verizon online, the My Verizon App, or by contacting customer service.
Without this toggle turned on:
– Unlimited Ultimate and Unlimited Plus subscribers will only get 720p video in 5G UWB territory and 480p video in nationwide 5G and 4G LTE areas.
– Users on the Unlimited Welcome plan will be limited to 480p video quality across all network types.
If you want to enhance your video streaming experience, follow these steps:
1. Open the My Verizon app
2. Navigate to the Account tab and select Plans
3. Find your phone number’s connected plan and scroll down to Network usage
4. Toggle on “Maximum video streaming quality”
Keep in mind that enabling this feature may consume data faster. For an additional $10 per month per line, you can upgrade to receive 1080p video quality with both 5G and 4G LTE coverage.
Verizon’s cutting-edge technology includes 5G UWB, offering lightning-fast download speeds up to 600Mbps using mid-band spectrum on the C-band. On the other hand, nationwide 5G recently achieved a peak download speed of 98Mbps in Speedtest results from a Verizon subscriber in the northeast United States.
Unlocking the full potential of your Verizon wireless plan is just a toggle away. Ensure you’re enjoying top-notch video quality by activating “unlimited premium network access” today!
