Shocking! 4G short videos exploded, 5G will eliminate pictures and texts!

The 2G era is an era of text messages flying everywhere. A short text is transmitted through the air through radio waves, and it may be the sweetness between lovers, the advice of parents, or the holiday blessings... During the Spring Festival in 2007 alone, more than 15 billion text messages were sent across the country.

In the 3G era, due to the limitations of network speed and traffic costs, people added strictly compressed JPG images, emoticons, and later changeable GIF animations to the monotonous text language, and combined them with traditional text messages to form MMS services, which enhanced the application of smartphones.

In the 4G era, the speed of the Internet has increased by leaps and bounds, reaching a rate of 100 Mbps. Many short video businesses have been derived: in the north, there is Kuaishou, which claims to surround the city from the countryside. It uses exaggerated and nonsensical recording techniques to lead people into rural life with short videos; in the south, there is Douyin, which claims to inspire the enthusiasm of young people, with fancy and funny background sounds, trying to introduce everyone to a new generation of world. The omnipotent WeChat is currently the most popular application in the country. It has also increased the short video length of Moments from 6 seconds to 10 seconds, allowing people to share their favorite things for longer, proving that Boss Ma's team also realized how important the status of short videos is in the 4G era.

In the 4G era where short videos are prevalent, the SMS service that was once very popular on our mobile phones is slowly dying out. Even during the most important Chinese New Year, greeting text messages are gradually being replaced by WeChat pictures and short videos.

Recently, the international communications standards organization 3GPP announced the official LOGO of 5G. my country's second phase of 5G test network will also be launched this year. Whether it is chip manufacturers, communication operators, telecommunications equipment manufacturers, terminal manufacturers, or global standardization organizations, they all seem to have worked hard and made frequent moves this year. The current test network transmission speed has reached 4Gpbs. After solving the problem of slow terminal reading and writing speeds, 5G technology will be widely used in the future. On the basis of application expansion, some traditional network experiences will also disappear.

1. 5G/WIFI switching

In the 5G era, the difference between mobile phone users' perception of mobile networks and WIFI networks will disappear. 5G users can seamlessly and smoothly transition from outdoor to indoor, from mobile network to WIFI, eliminating the tedious steps of switching networks and entering passwords. They can hardly feel the existence of WIFI, including voice calls can also be transmitted on the WIFI network. With extremely low latency, users will not feel the switching between networks during use.

2. The rise of VR video

At present, VR is affected by factors such as network speed, latency, and noise, resulting in a limited range of experiences. In the 5G era, the above problems will be solved. The popular video New Year greetings in the 4G era will be replaced by popular VR: on the first day of the Lunar New Year, a son far away in the United States can sit on the sofa in the living room of his hometown and feel the joy of the New Year "at home" with his parents.

3. The demise of images and text

The 5G era will bring about a change in the entire social form of mankind. Everything related to the Internet will undergo a subversive change. For example, text messages in 2G, popular pictures in 3G, and low-quality videos in 4G will gradually disappear. With better communication tools, chatting in the 5G era will be simpler and faster. You can directly shoot an 8K video and send it to your friends. Some female friends who are used to beautifying don’t have to worry. This function can also be extended to videos. You can edit the high-resolution version of you to your satisfaction and then send it to him/her^_^.

In the 5G era, speed is invincible and unstoppable, and it will inevitably reshape the social structure. Please wait and see.
