After a week, Digi finally announced its 5G accessibility to all its subscribers. 5G will be made available to its customers on 10 November 2022, starting with Digi Postpaid subscribers. 

However, only new and existing customers who are on the current-selling Digi Postpaid 90, 120, 150 and Family Unlimited 200 plans will now have the option to upgrade their plans to enable 5G access at no extra cost. This includes PhoneFreedom 365 and Pakej PowerJimat customers on the above plans.

Eligible Digi Postpaid customers can choose to upgrade their plans to 5G simply by activating a 5G Speed Booster via their MyDigi app, as long as they are using compatible 5G-enabled devices and are within 5G network coverage. Digi will continue to gradually unlock 5G access to more customers across a wider range of plans including Digi Prepaid soon. 

Customers who are on the eligible Digi Postpaid plans and are interested to experience 5G can follow the steps below to activate 5G, available from 10 November: 

1. Download and launch the MyDigi App
2. Go to “Buy Add-Ons"
3. Choose “5G Speed Booster” and confirm activation for free

Digi Business customers on Go Digi 98 and 128 plans also have the option to activate access to 5G services on their plans via the same method above. To check 5G coverage areas and for more information on Digi’s 5G device bundles or 5G in general, please visit https://digi.my/5g.
