In a nutshell, because 5G uses a different spectrum than 4G LTE , it can deliver stronger and faster connections, higher capacity for traffic, as well as latency as low as 1ms. However, the 5G rollout is still in its early stages.
Read moreWhich is better 5G or 4G LTE?
With 5G, networks can move vast amounts of data more efficiently than with 4G LTE . That means: Faster speeds to download movies and shows or video chat on the go. More connected devices with a faster signal at large events.

T-Mobile said it’s the world’s first New Radio Dual Connectivity (NR DC) data call on a commercial standalone 5G network . ( T-Mobile) T-Mobile is claiming a new first for standalone 5G. The operator used a combo of 2.5 GHz and mmWave spectrum to reach nearly 5 Gbps on its commercial SA 5G network.
Read moreWhat is the difference between 5G SA and 5G NSA?
NSA makes it easier for network operators to deploy a 5G network as it can reuse the current 4G facilities. Whereas, SA involves a 5G core which can deliver a super-fast and flexible network, ultra-low latency, thus reducing operational costs.
Read moreWhat is NSA in 5G?
Devices running Android 10 or higher can support 5G non-standalone (NSA). 5G NSA is a solution for 5G networks where the network is supported by the existing 4G infrastructure . On Android 10, devices can display a 5G icon on the status bar when a device connects to a 5G network.
Read moreWhat is NR and LTE?
5G NR Differences from LTE LTE has a packet-switched architecture that supports a wide range of data applications . Voice is also supported as voice over LTE (VoLTE) or using fallback mechanisms to 3G and circuit-switched technologies. The 5G NR specification embraces a flexible air interface.
Read moreWhat is the difference between 5G NR and 4G?
For example, a smaller bandwidth signal increases transmission length but reduces latency while a high numerology enables lower latency. Compared to 4G LTE, 5G NR offers significant potential by enabling multiple use cases . However, the standard is complex because the requirements of the use cases vary greatly.
