What’s the big deal with 5G and why should you care? If you have a smart phone, you must have seen the icon at the top of your screen that shows you the type network you’re on. It could be 3G, Edge or 4G LTE. 5G, which stands for Fifth Generation Wireless Technology, is the next evolution for mobile technology after 4G LTE. The first generation was launched in 1983, and currently, 4G LTE that, ironically, stands for ‘long term evolution’, a fourth generation of wireless network, is in wide use around the world. Here’s what you need to know about the state of 5G right now:
What to expect from 5G
5G will not only be many, many times faster than your existing LTE connection, it will be significantly faster than the broadband connection you have at home or work. 5G networks are also more responsive, which means you’ll see a shorter lag between your command and the network’s response, and they also allow more data to be transferred. Currently, 4G’s quickest speeds are about 1 Gigabit per second. 5G downloads could be 10 to 20 times faster than 4G. A significant increase in download and upload speeds could enhance many existing uses including cloud-based storage, augmented reality and artificial intelligence.
