Optus’ newest 5G Internet Plans are all about high speed and streamed entertainment

Optus is bringing internet lovers the power of 5G with its new Optus 5G Internet plans, delivering customers the high speeds they need and the best in premium streamed entertainment.

Creating more choice and added value, Optus will launch two new 5G Internet plans designed to give customers the option of selecting the 5G high speed and streamed entertainment package that best meets their usage habits.

Available later this year Optus will launch a new 5G Internet Entertainer plan at $90 per month which provides customers with access to uncapped speeds on Optus’ 5G network that currently delivers an average download speed of 214Mbps (between 7pm-11pm)*.  Customers also get  unlimited data and one month free.  To help customers make the most of these incredible speeds, the ‘Entertainer’ plan also includes Optus Sport and a Fetch Mighty box, with a Premium Channel pack included, offering over 45 plus channels of premium streamed entertainment.

Optus will also launch the Optus 5G Internet Everyday Plan at $75 per month. This plan offers maximum speeds of 100Mbps (with an estimated average download speed of 85Mbps between 7pm-11pm) and combines unlimited data with Optus Sport included, giving customers access to premium health and fitness content through OS Fitness, on the Optus Sport app, plus one month free.

In anticipation of these new 5G Internet plans, Optus is launching the Optus 5G Internet Everyday Plan first and is giving customers who sign up to this plan now, a chance to enjoy the uncapped ‘Entertainer’ speeds, as well as access to incredible content from Optus Sport for $75 per month. This limited time Optus 5G Internet Everyday Plan offer is available from 11 September 2020.

“Customers tell us that choice, value and speed are important to them and our new 5G Internet plans deliver exactly this. 5G creates a whole new world of experiences within the home with the ability to stream and share content from multiple devices at the same time - something that has become increasingly important this year, as our way of working, schooling and living has changed,” said Matt Williams, Optus Managing Director Marketing and Revenue.

“Having been in market with this world leading product for nearly a year, we have seen and learnt how our thousands of customers are using our 5G Internet. What is clear is that customers enjoy choice and flexibility when it comes to home internet, so we have designed these new 5G Internet plans to create options for our customers – delivering them a high speed and entertainment package that works best for their lifestyle.”

In addition, Optus 5G Internet is plug and play allowing customers to self-install, meaning that they can choose when they set up their device and all with minimal effort.

More than 420,000 households in Australia can now access Optus 5G Internet as Optus continues to accelerate its 5G deployment.

* The actual speed experienced by each customer will vary based on factors such as the placement of the modem, distance from the 5G tower, local conditions, software and hardware features, and levels of internet traffic and congestion.  Average download speed as at September 2020 is calculated based on the previous rolling 3- month period and is the average speed experienced by a representative group of customers between 7pm and 11pm (the busy time for consumer internet traffic).
