discuss How Will 5G Impact the Tech Industry?

[1stop]

I’ve seen 5G being rolled out. It's definitely going to be a game changer. With 5G, we’ll experience smoother video calls and a more stable internet. It might even bring something that is totally new in the tech industry.

If I had to speak on gaming, it would totally level up gaming. It would be awesome to stream games in HD on your phone with no lag at all. Such internet speed can make you play games anywhere. There will be drastic developments in AR and VR experiences too.

I’ve seen 5G being rolled out.

5G has been widely available in Japan since 2020, but it wasn't until 2022 that we got maximum download speeds of 4.9Gbps and upload speeds of 1.1Gbps, which is better than most home internet plans around the world. So, I essentially have home internet speeds wherever I go.

I just ran a speed test for a farther away server on both my phone and computer. I have download speeds of 100Mbps over the 5G network while only 88.5Mbps on my computer (though others are streaming video and music so my home network might be bogged down). In contrast, I only have 2.5Mbps upload speeds over 5G while I have 87.7Mbps on home internet.

I'm grandfathered into unlimited Wi-Fi tethering with my S23 Ultra, but if I upgrade my phone I will be forced to change my plan to where I can only share 25 GB. I presume this is because many have canceled their home internet plans as it would save $50-70/month when they could just tether and have the same experience.

It's great. I can stream 4K if I wanted (but my phone's display doesn't have 4K so it would be overkill).

As far as gaming, I haven't tested tethering to see if it can keep up with my 1Gbps home internet when it comes to latency, as that is a huge factor over just download speeds. Though, it should.

It will improve connectivity, data transfer will be faster. This will have a huge impact on how we communicate and how we transfer data. It will help development of smarter technology

It's a lot to be experienced with a 5G network. It makes the use of devices less stressful and seamless. I mean, we can use our online devices much more easily without worrying about network and lagging issues. It will also introduce innovations to so many industries including healthcare.

A lot of people are limiting 5G to just the speed of the internet. Whereas, it's way more than that. It can make self-driving cars safer and it makes things seamless, thereby making our lives fun.
