The flashiest use cases are still a fantasy.

But the flashiest use cases are nowhere to be found — and the race to deplo...::AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile’s race to deploy 5G has failed to realize its flashiest outcomes while saddling carriers with debt and removing a competitor from the market.
You're viewing a single thread.
5G mms is the high speed service. But its affected by wind, buildings and cars. And the phones that have it are expensive because the circuitry uses heaps of power and the battery is the most expensive part of the phone.
So mms is mainly being promoted for stationary devices, and in buildings that have repeater emitters.
The 5G low band phones are cheaper to make than 4G because the circuitry is more efficient so you can use smaller batteries.
5G has a more efficient algorithm for ordering incoming/outgoing signals, so like-for-like there is higher speed and less freezing. But in new areas the telcos just build fewer towers so the speed is no better than 4G.
The battery is the most expensive part of the phone
Lol no it's not? This is easy to disprove just by looking at the price of replacement parts. You can't tell me that the battery is more expensive than the processor of the phone.
Raw materials-wise maybe? Check your last sentence as well, don't think you communicated what you meant to
They're definitely correct that the battery is not the most expensive part of the phone, but their last sentence is backward.
Woops, haven't had my third coffee of the day.
