There is no doubt that Apple will launch a 5G iPhone this year; Although the company does not announce its future plans in any of its devices, there have been enough rumors and analyst reports to confirm that it is coming, not to mention that there is no room for delay, especially that other companies will adopt it soon. However, what does 5G mean to you? Will high speeds be important, or have we reached a point enough? Are there more benefits beyond faster downloads? Follow the article to find out some of the cool things you'll be able to do with 5G technology.


Download apps and movies in seconds

The most obvious benefit of 5G technology is that it is fast, for example, the AT&T network that provides 5G-mmWave connectivity, which is already available in 35 US cities, provides download speeds of 2 gigabits per second (that is, download 1 GB movie in 4 seconds). This is besides offering the highest transmission rate we have never seen, which still peaks at only 41 Mbps on 500G networks, which is well below the 5 Mbps speeds that the slowest XNUMXG networks are expected to offer.

As a reminder, 1 megabyte = 8 megabyte… files on the computer are recorded in megabytes and gigabytes, while internet speeds are remembered as a bit, that is, when you share a speed of 24 megabytes, this means 24 megabytes, and files will be downloaded at a speed of 3 megabytes per second.


Avoid paying for onboard Wi-Fi

With the kind of speeds that 5G offers, you can easily download tons of movies while waiting for the plane, without having to stream them over sometimes intermittent or slow Wi-Fi. With streaming services that offer offline playback, XNUMXG will provide a convenient way to download some episodes of your favorite shows in seconds to watch later.


Online games

Because of the speed, 5G technology will bring a lot of potential, which will truly revolutionize online mobile games. Although Apple Arcade allows games to be downloaded to your device, other services such as Microsoft Project xCloud and Google's Stadia depend on it. Football Goal Live broadcast  For games from its cloud servers, this will be very useful in such cases.


The best augmented reality experiences

The 5G technology will definitely have an incredible impact on augmented reality and virtual reality. Imagine sending data between devices all over the world in real time. This may provide a whole new level of remote control such as controlling an augmented reality model to control drones and smart cars.


Independent Apple Glasses

AR technology experiences for enhanced augmented reality are of particular interest, as Apple has plans to launch AR glasses in the next two to three years. While early releases will likely rely on short-range Wi-Fi connections, the ubiquitous advent of 5G technology will be the key to allowing Apple to create a line of standalone AR glasses.


Better security

5G technology is more capable of handling a lot of devices in one place compared to traditional Wi-Fi networks. And while Wi-Fi 6 will improve this, high-speed 5G could spread everywhere in the short run before Wi-Fi 6. Most importantly, public Wi-Fi is completely insecure, which is why We always recommend using a VPN.


5G home internet

There will come a day and everything in your home will be connected to the Internet, and it will take a few years for the prices of 5G subscriptions to decrease in order to suit the average user. This is not the security that this technology will provide as opposed to the current ranges that provide much lower limits than this.

What can 5G provide other than what we mentioned? Let us know in the comments.
