5G – It’s Growing Faster Than You Imagined
5G is the word on everyone’s lips, from everyday consumers and investors to mobile networks like TeleChoice – after all, it’s the most anticipated technology in over a decade and it will transform all mobile services, including TeleChoice services. The popularity and interest in 5G are growing every day as TeleChoice Telstra and other providers put plans for the big rollout into action around the world. Here are the latest 5G stats and insights.
What Do the Latest Forecasts Say?
Last year, mobile giants Ericsson forecasted 1.5 billion 5G subscriptions by 2024 – now they’re saying they’ve had to revise these numbers upward by 400 million to a huge 1.9 billion forecasted 5G subscriptions – an increase of 27%.
They’re not alone in increasing their forecasted numbers either, with communications services providers around the world generally agreeing on an anticipated uptake of 5G by 45% of the world by the 2024 date. Mobile network providers, including TeleChoice Telstra, also generally agree that the real number could be much higher – as much as 65% of the world’s population it LTE frequency bands are fully enabled for 5G deployment.
TeleChoice Telstra and 5G – Everything You Should Know
TeleChoice services are delivered over the TeleChoice Telstra network, the network with the largest coverage in Australia. TeleChoice Telstra is in the process of rolling out 5G coverage in order to deliver users more capacity for fast, easy access in crowded areas, faster speeds that will benefit mobile browsing and social media, and less latency for rapid responsiveness in gaming. Telstra, along with Ericsson, made the first end-to-end 5G standalone call in the southern hemisphere in July this year, successfully testing 5G standalone data transmission – something that is critical to business users.
To use TeleChoice services on 5G, which is already available in some locations as it’s being rolled out, you’ll need a 5G device. Currently, mobile phone providers are starting to supply these and the most anticipated 5G phones include the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G, the LG V50 ThinQ, HTC 5G Hub, Huawei Mate X, and Apple’s 5G iPhone.
The 5G network from TeleChoice Telstra offers a massive upgrade in capabilities which makes it a likely contender as an alternative for NBN (National Broadband Network). However, availability and speeds will depend a lot on the coverage in your area, which you can check out on a coverage map or test on a 5G device. As the rollout progresses, so coverage will increase.
