      @Jspider56 Год назад +5

      most 5G phones are programmed to bias towards the 5G connection which can really hurt when the device isn't testing for signal strength or latency.
      A detail that's likely to have changed, since I've been out of the game for a year and a half, is early 5G phones would still send data requests out over 4G frequency then only recieve downloads from the 5G. This would lead to phones failing entirely if one of the frequencies failed as the device wouldn't verify what was happening. I remember my buddies in tech support grumbling about the issue and customers being upset that they couldn't get 5G 100% of the time with their new phones.

    • @MrLuffy9131

      People tend to forget how long it took 3G & 4G to become stable. It took years of tweaking it. It's going to be the same for 5G. Yes, 5G sucks right now, but it will get better over time. The problem is that big phone companies over hyped that 5G is here, which it is truly not. At this point, it's only in certain areas, and the main fallback is 4G, like 3G was to 4G when 4G was going up. Not to mention, the phone companies still have to convert the 3G towers( which they just took down) with the 5G towers. The kicker is that you still have to pay while your service is crap which the phone companies call growing pains.

      @xFrosty Resonance I am a network admin for a fortune 100 chemical company and I work exclusively in the wireless networking arena. Cellular companies have been promising 'Coast to coast 5G!' for years now. But the reality is with these 60-80 Ghz PTP microwave links the nominal range is around 1,000 feet total. This will require a 5G asset to be installed every thousand feet approximately to get true RF cellular propagation of the 5G kind. With 5G I would expect nothing less than 1000 Mbps. However unless you are directly in front of a 5G asset...or have line of sight with that gateway impeded...your speeds will dramatically decrease. These companies have small pockets of 5G hardware spread across the country. This is how they make thier nonsensical claims of 'Coast to coast 5G'. The reality is less than 10% of the country is being blanketed by 5G wireless RF signals. The sheer cost of getting upwards of 50% of the country covered with true 5G will cost more than 100 billion dollars. Consumers will not come close to true 5G wireless propagation until at least another decade from 2022.

      I've used every carrier's service that actually owns the towers: AT&T UYW Elite and FirstNet Extra, T-mobile MM, and Verizon's Get More. All three are comparably priced, offer similar features, and most importantly, are the Flagship of 5G for its respective service outside of subsidiaries or leased infrastructure users. My biggest takeaway is that 5G is always an issue of coverage. Sure I'll get ultra wide band here with Verizon, but 30 feet to the left, and it's gone. From what I've gathered, AT&T is more reliable and widespread, even if it is a bit slower. Tmobile had considerably worse coverage than both, though calls always seemed to work. honestly, if you could just have one device that allows you to utilize your number on all three company's towers we'd be significantly closer to the 5G experience we were promised.

      eh I'm running around this thread explaining this but basically 5G on lower bands is mostly just better connection security. Basically networks can run more devices with fewer dropped calls with the devices needing to resend requests less often creating marginal speed increases.
      Your 5G connectivity depends on where you are and what band the network has deployed for the 5G connection. When i worked for a carrier I used to be able to load up a signal map and actually see which frequencies were graded the best in different areas (don't pester most cell workers about it, the tool is niche and unless they're particularly nerdy they won't open up about things that are difficult to read)

I’m in it for your basic clear audio, basic clear camera angle, and thoughtful and engaging minds sharing ideas. It’s the personality, articulation, and content that surpasses the rest. This video is just as good if not better than any other.
    Take care, and hope you’re back on your feet soon. Thanks, too, for treating the virus responsibly.

    Excellent video as always. Very informative. As in most things 'tech'. Whenever there is something introduced - tech-wise - these companies shrewdly market them, hype them and give you all of the benefits of them long before they come out. This 5G is no exception, as with graphics cards, USB transfer speed ratings and other assorted products and services, for example. These things look and sound, great 'on paper', but usually don't deliver on the 'hyped' promises for a long time after their introduction. It's kind of sad, but this is the way of things for at least 30-35 years now. These are the 'cards' that we are dealt....Grazie. Keep up the good work MDBHD. Your videos are very enjoyable to watch!

      Panel gaps were explained to me as a quick reference for build quality. If the gaps are even they built a reliable car.

    1:39 seeing the future isn't (or shouldn't be) about seeing all the positvies. But seeing it sober and clear headed, and picking through all the corporate BS. Thinking how these things will actually affect us. Not just the good stuff it *could* bring. But the bad stuff too

    This was an amazing video! Usually when I watch your videos (despite your personable nature), I always feel a little... out of the picture if that makes any sense. But hearing more about your personal opinions is awesome and is personally helping me develop my own and ask myself more questions. Thanks M, appreciate it man

    Cool video. I like this style of simple talk and updates. A hot/personal takes video is a nice idea that you can even repeat every now and then due to the constantly changing tech world. It's nice to sit down and talk about this stuff in a wide scope instead of complicated talk. I agree with pretty much all your points as well, especially the crypto and 5G points.

    Love this video format. It feels more like a podcast. Also, not sure how it works with carriers in the US, but here in Canada 5G has opened the door for mobile data throttling. I believe that this was introduced in fall or summer 2022. So depending on how much you are willing to spend on your data plan determines whether or not you receive 5G or 5G+, according to their branding. So on Rogers for instance, in order to be guaranteed 1Gbps data speeds you would need to be paying $100/month on your phone plan. It's outrageous that something sold as some world changing innovative technology has really just become a way for them to line their pockets by digging further and further into ours. Just another way for them to sell to us according to privilege, and manipulate our senses from what we expect to what we actually end up getting. Every carrier here is now selling plans with "high speed internet" that is unlimited, but slows at a data cap according to the cost of your plan. To find out that "high speed" actually means max 250 mbps and would drop substantially feels like a con. Not to mention, like you, I believe the consistency of it to be appauling. We now have these crazy high (unnecessary) allotments of "data plans before throttling" which are unnecessary for the most part, because if in more rural settings the speeds are so slow even when within data allotment it makes the amount of high speed data you get useless. Makes me sad how much we rely on these companies as partners in our everyday lives in modern times.

      This has generally been the case in America for a while. Depending on your QOS, carriers will throttle your usage past your data limit. While I don't know enough about how it's applied to condemn the practice across the board, I do have sympathy for the carriers that maintain a complex and widespread network such that people can use magic internet boxes in 98% of the North American landmass with ease.

    • @BobsUp83
      @BobsUp83 Год назад +1

      The question is more, why do you need 1Gbps speed on a phone? What for? I can do everything I need with just 10 Mbps...this is still more than enough even for watching videos...I can understand for a landline connection at home given you have multiple devices accessing at the same time, but on a phone? I laugh when I see ads from my provider asking me to upgrade my plan to 5G for a fee...

    5G here in my home country is absolutely horrendous. My LTE signal has higher bars, faster speed, lower latency, lower power consumption everywhere I go. I have switched 5G off on every single one of my family members and friends phones after we did the speed test comparing their LTE and 5G speeds 5G is ultimately useless. I feel really good about my opinions been validated by MKBHD himself.

    I’m glad you said it. I thought it was just my phone or carrier but I keep the latest phones. 5g is never really good. I must download on Wi-Fi at times because it’s slow on 5g with full signal even out doors
