Easy answer, No! For the last 10 years, every improvement in carrier wireless technologies was proffered as a potential technology to replace Wi-Fi and the answer was always the same, not yet. We saw it with mobile WiMAX, 3G, and 4G, it will be the same answer for 5G.
Read moreWhy is 5G slower than Wi-Fi?
The difference in 5G download speed between each country is mainly because of the different amount of spectrum used to deploy the 5G service . Where operators have used near 100Mhz of spectrum they’ve typically offered users speeds faster than those operators limited to 40Mhz or 50Mhz 5G channel sizes.6 May 2020

What’s the difference between 5G and Wi-Fi? … The two frequencies that Wi-Fi uses are 2.4GHz and 5GHz. In simple terms, 2.4GHz has a lower potential top speed but penetrates better, so it has a longer range than the higher frequency , 5GHz, which can deliver faster speeds but doesn’t penetrate things like walls as easily.25 Şub 2021

5G phones can’t handle that yet, PCMag analyst Sascha Segan wrote: But 5G phones can’t add as many 4G channels to a 5G channel. So if they’re in 5G mode, they’re giving up 4G channels so they can use that extremely narrow, often 5MHz 5G channel, and the result is slower performance: faux G .
Read moreWhy is LTE faster than 5G?
These higher speeds are generally achieved because 5G users a different spectrum to that 4G uses, namely mmWave high-frequency bands, which support far more bandwidth than those LTE uses . Therefore, more data can be transferred at once.
Read moreWhy is my 5G slower than my 4G?
Technically. So, why are some 5G connections so slow? The first, and most impactful, reason is that the far-reaching 5G signals that have powered the vast majority of carrier rollouts in the US – especially from AT&T and, to a lesser extent, T-Mobile – have used low-band carrier frequencies.7 Şub 2022
Read moreHow much stronger is 5G than 4G?
4G can currently reach top speeds of up to 100 Mbps, though real-world performance is generally no more than 35 Mbps. 5G has the potential to be 100 times faster than 4G , with a top theoretical speed around 20 Gbps and current, real-world speeds from 50 Mbps to 3 Gbps.
