How many people are using invalid 5G? The price has doubled, and the experience has become worse

It has been two years since the promotion of 5G began in 2019. During this process, many people feel that the promotion speed of 5G is not as fast as expected. At the same time, many people have put forward the view that 5G is useless. It can be said that 5G is growing wildly.

Is 5G really useless? The answer is definitely no. Every network upgrade will bring great changes to our lives. For example, the development of 5G, in addition to fast network speed, allows us to load Douyin and live broadcasts faster, and also brings many new levels of content. For example, 5G driverless, 5G online smart classroom, and even 5G remote ultrasound, etc., but these technologies are still in development and have not yet come to us so quickly.

Why do some people think 5G is useless? Because many users in China are actually using invalid 5G, paying several times more than 4G, but getting a worse network experience than 4G. The main reason for invalid 5G is the signal problem. Although the three major operators claim to cover 95% of county-level cities, in fact, you can see from the 5G network query website that there are still many gaps in the green after zooming in. The incomplete signal coverage leads to unstable 5G signals, which drop out of the network from time to time, and the experience is not as good as 4G.

At the same time, some users are using 5G because the package price is too expensive. They use 5G, but the traffic price and speed of 5G are even higher than those of 4G. The price is high and the speed is fast, so 5G users have to give up their phones in places without wifi. One netizen said that he just accidentally clicked on an advertisement video, and 5G immediately loaded the advertisement for him, making him waste money in vain.

Based on the above two main reasons, many 5G users have a very poor 5G experience. In fact, 5G is still in its growth stage, so there will naturally be many problems. Moreover, 5G mobile phones have been greatly reduced in price, but the price of 5G traffic is still expensive no matter how much it is reduced. At this stage, it is more convenient to continue using 4G.

Especially for those users who have 4G unlimited data cards, for example, the more representative Quanmin Youda Big Data Card on the market is so popular that it is only available for purchase on Tuesdays and Fridays. For 39 yuan a month, you can enjoy free data and use it as you like. In the 5G era, it is impossible to have unlimited packages. Users who have unlimited data cards should use them and cherish them.

The future is indeed the era of 5G, and it is indeed the era of 5G now. However, many things will encounter many problems in the initial development process. Will you choose to join 5G at this time?
