5G Speed - faster than Muhammad Ali?
Dear Ivor,
Apple to build at least 75 million 5G iPhones to hit markets
in – October- a few weeks time!
How we got to 5G - summarised. (Link to full version at bottom of this post)
In the 1980s 1G pioneered wireless telecommunications – with mobile phones like bricks!
2G introduced a digital standard, circuit-switched technology.
In 2008, Apple’s 3G iPhone was revealed, and was twice as fast as its predecessor, half the cost,had built-in GPS (and thousands waited all night outside Apple shops to buy it)
In 2009 came the current 4G standard.
Bringing Uber taxis, posting photos to Facebook, connecting on FaceTime and streaming movies on Netflix.
Those are just four examples of the dramatic revolutions that internet speeds bring about.
Currently, 99% of devices connected to the internet are either PCs, smart-phones or tablets.
In total that’s 6 billion devices all connected – talking to each other.
But 5G will increase the number of devices connected to the internet to 50 billion.
Think cars… traffic lights… watches… shoes… bicycles and much much more.
Artificial intelligence…
Self Drive vehicles…
