Google Fiber will soon offer 5Gbps and 8Gbps tiers starting in early 2023. 5 Gig will make it easier to upload and download simultaneously, no matter the file size and 8 Gig will make sure that everything online is happening in near real time without jitter and with low latency.
The 5Gbps tier will cost $125 per month, while the 8Gbps tier will cost $150 per month. Some Google Fiber users will be able to test these new speedy tiers early.
Both tiers come with a Wi-Fi 6 router and up to two mesh extenders with professional installation, but users can use their own router if required. Both will have symmetrical upload and download speeds.
Director of product management Amalia O’Sullivan said, “If you are a current Google Fiber customer, especially in Utah, Kansas City or West Des Moines, you could be trying out these new products as early as next month. If that describes you, fill out this form to be considered for the program. I’ll be watching you jealously from afar with my measly-by-comparison 100Mbps download speeds.”
