5G networks are faster , can handle a higher volume of data, and reduce wait times. The new technology is able to shoot data from millions of local sensors or gadgets to distant cloud computers for processing and then return the relevant guidance — all in a fraction of a second.

According to AT&T, these technical upgrades (which were additional features on top of 4G LTE), offered faster data speeds. They also paved the way for the “evolution to 5G” of AT&T’s 4G LTE services. In retrospect, this was an important distinction for AT&T to make, as 5G Evolution isn’t actually 5G at all .

AT&T created the label to show that those phones connect to what AT&T calls “5G Evolution” technologies. 5G Evolution means that those phones can connect to towers with features like three-way carrier aggregation, 4 x 4 MIMO antenna setups, and 256-QAM modulation .
