What is 5G technology?
The new generation of internet is called standalone, which can be understood as self-sufficient. This is the reputation that 5G wants to have, as it aims to offer advances in several sectors, such as improving virtual reality, allowing surgeries to be carried out remotely, connecting various objects to the internet without a computer.promehave speed and even make a car drive itself.
It is already running?
As not everything is rosy, this self-sufficient internet does not fully work in Brazil or abroad. Worldwide, coverage is secondary. Even in the city of São Paulo, which had its antennas switched on, only 25% of the urban area will be covered by the new speed, according to the forecast of the Monitoring Group for the Implementation of Solutions for Interference Problems for g1.
In addition to the lack of coverage, several cell phone models are not compatible with the new technology. Operators are already offering to purchase a new plan to access speed.
