Spark says it has switched on 5G mobile in two more towns: Te Awamutu and New Plymouth, wrapping up its rollout for 2020.
Spark says there will be no surcharge for 5G until at least July 21.
The upgraded service does require a 5G handset - of which there are now more on the market after Apple launching four 5G-capable models in its new iPhone 12 line.
This year has seen Spark launch the faster mobile network technology in Palmerston North, central Dunedin and parts of the Auckland CBD, before the two towns added today (see coverage maps here).
