>5g can hardly penetrate tree leaves due to wavelength
>push everyone to 5g despite notoriously crap range
>5 is bigger than 4 so it must be better
>hmm weird where did my signal go
I’ve been saying this since day one, but I’m not the one making billions of dollars on worse service so what do I know. 4g is fast enough for everyone except people who want to stream their Amazon Luna photorealistic VR game on the subway (e.g. nobody). Not really worth being able to watch 4k netflix if you have to step outside to do it. It’s almost always throttled anyway because profits, I’ve hardly had a 5g connection that felt faster than 4g did
You’re wayyyyyy oversimplifying it. The problem is the amount of data use today. LTE networks from even a few years ago would not remotely be able to handle it. High-band 5G and mid-band LTE/5G is necessary to alleviate congestion from low-band LTE
