It’s settled! 5G official logo officially announced

In the 4G era, although "4G" and "4.5G" are widely spread and easy to remember, the international communications standards organization 3GPP still uses obscure and difficult-to-remember terms such as LTE, LTE-Advanced, and LTE-Advanced Pro as official names, and never mentions 4G and 4.5G.

Recently, 3GPP, contrary to its previous low-key style, announced the official logo of the fifth generation mobile communication technology 5G:

From the design point of view, the 5G logo adopts part of the 4G LTE-Advanced Pro logo design. 3GPP stated that the design of the 5G logo is based on the existing LTE new design and uses the green logo of LTE-Advanced Pro to highlight the continuous evolution of technology.

A good teacher always has a way to make people understand any difficult questions in seconds: Someone once asked about the differences between 2G, 3G, and 4G, and the respondent gave such an example, which is said to make people understand it in seconds.

With 5G, the gap will only widen. Compared with the current 4G network, the speed of 5G network can reach at least 10 times that of 4G network, and up to 100 times. The number of devices supported is at least 100 billion, and the download speed can reach 10GB per second.

It is reported that AT&T's 5G network speed was tested at 14GB per second in the laboratory. In this ideal environment, downloading is just a blink of an eye. What you worry about is not the network speed, but whether the memory or hard disk can withstand such fast reading and writing.

However, for consumers, buying 5G mobile phones may still be a problem. At present, the global telecommunications industry has not yet formed a unified standard for 5G, and mobile phone manufacturers are naturally unable to mass-produce 5G mobile phones. Therefore, in the early stage of network activation, consumers may face extremely limited mobile phone choices.
