5G is about faster connectivity not cheaper. Wireless mobile broadband requires massive capital outlays, so it is unlikely that prices will be coming down anytime soon. The carrier's only concern is ROI. Contrary to what their marketing spiels may claim. LoRaWAN technology, if meshed, can cover a wide area, but it is relatively slow. There has been some chatter about carriers including that standard with their existing towers for IoT applications. Even if that comes about it will probably be years away and be priced to be profitable not cheap.
