I just have a question about 5G

My Mom has an iphone 6plus. I understand it is 4g. When 5 G starts will she still be able to call & text. That is all she needs? I want to know if she needs another device or if that will still work

Yes you can still call and text with 4G phones. 4G networks will run concurrently with 5G networks. A 5G capable device with connect to a 5G Network, where available, and the 4G capable device will continue to connect to a 4G Network. Your mom does NOT need a another device for this purpose.
