5G has a lot of bands. Most of them are close to the 3G/4G bands, so it should have the same signal as 3G/4G. Also, new IoT technologies use techniques allowing them to operate at a much weaker signal. But you can always just dest

On the positive side, this probably means that the average man will marry a woman in the top50% of the romantic relationships he has had in the past. So you can focus on that thought. :) Of course, this is possible because the average man w

The most depressing outcome of it is that a man will eventually marry a woman who ranks him at the bottom 50% of the people she had a romantic relationship with. I can not tell who is going to be the most miserable in such relationship. My

Is the USB-C only for power? Could you plug it in a monitor directly through USB-C, so that you could have display and power (and possible access to the hub of the monitor) through single cable?

I agree. It shows at minimum lack of empathy / interpersonal skills and at maximum an attempt to offend him. It is not racist though.

Only mmWave 5G, as of now mostly used in the USA, has this problem. Sub6 5G has similar propagation to LTE. Sub6 has way less capacity than mmWave though. I guess in the future operators will use both frequency ranges in parallel in a macro

Do not be confused. These technologies are very different to the 5G technology (called “New Radio”) the new iPhone and 5G phones in general are using. They are designed around using as little energy as possible and maintaining connectivity

Both LTE-M and NB-IoT are considered technologies of the 5G family. Technically they are way simpler versions of LTE, but they can coexist with "normal" 4G and 5G. A 4G / 5G base station can allocate part of its radio resourc

It depends on how often you change phones. If you change phone, keep your phones more than 3 years I would wait. If not, by the time you will really need to have 5G you would be about to buy the next phone, which will certainly have 5G.

In 2011-2012, when 4G started becoming mainstream, did you make similar claims? For example, did you say something in the lines of “why would I want to watch videos on my phone? 3G is more than enough for the browsing I am doing now?” 4G mi
