Do you understand the benefits of 5G? Learn about the pros and cons

We talk about 5G every day, but do you know what 5G is? What are the benefits to us? What benefits will 5G bring when it is fully popularized? (Some ordinary home optical fibers cannot compare to 5G);

[[404306]] 5G

Benefit 1: Low latency (fast response):

Let's talk about low latency first. Doing things online is like driving on the road. You can't drive all the way on the highway. The normal process of doing things is sometimes on the highway and sometimes on the provincial road. If you are unlucky, you have to go into the city and wait for the red light. So, no matter how fast 4G and broadband seem, when playing games or watching videos, it is inevitable to encounter lag. This is network latency. With 5G, network latency is basically cured, because the network latency of 5G is theoretically 1 millisecond. What is 1 millisecond? It is one thousandth of a second.

Benefit 2: High concurrency (no bursting);

When you are on the subway, shopping, or watching a game, you will always find that you can’t connect to 4G at all, or you can connect but can’t post to Moments. This is because there are too many mobile phones around you, and everyone is using their phones to overwhelm the network. With 5G, even if 100,000 people are watching a game at the same time in a football stadium, the network will not be overwhelmed. This is because 5G can allow 1 million devices to access the Internet at the same time per square kilometer.

Benefit 3: High download speed (fast internet speed):

5G has a high network speed (theoretical speed is 10,000 Mb/s). You can imagine that downloading a 20GB 4K movie may only take the time to pee. Of course, the three major advantages of 5G, namely no delays, no congestion and fast service, are not only to improve the existing Internet experience.

With these three benefits, it can also achieve greater ambitions!

VR (virtual reality), autonomous driving.

Let's talk about VR first. If you want to play VR well, the images must be realistic, otherwise it can only be called a virtual Windows screensaver. In addition, if the network delay is too severe, the person wearing the VR helmet will feel dizzy.

Therefore, if you want to play VR anytime and anywhere, you must first use 5G.
