How do (((telcos))) expect to sell this to the goyim who have yet to see much change from LTE to 5G other than the battery draining much faster?

5G actually sucked
i thought it was gonna be great but it made my phone hot and DRASTICALLY reduced my battery time. I mean I have 5G for home internet router and it is great there I admit, but for phones. It was a waste of time. You don't even need speeds that fast on your phone, 4g lte provides all the speed a phone needs. It's not like you're ever streaming 4k content on a phone (which could probably also be handled by 4glte tbqh) because ther eare no 4k phones anymore and if a 4k phone has 5g its battery would last not even long enough to finish an episode of your goyslop 4k show

they put it in all phones, then they deprecate 5g and stop selling new phones with it
goyim will buy it because it's the only choice
you're not one of those idiots that think "voting with your wallet" actually works, right?

I literally just disable 5G on my phone due to the battery drain so IDK lol

5G generally reduces the battery life in most places because for some fucking reason most 5G deployments are non-standalone, which is to say you still need to connect to LTE for phone calls and messaging (yes, even with VoLTE), and that has to stay active all the time for obvious reasons. So the radio is basically connecting to two networks at once which has a very negative impact on battery for obvious reasons.

I disabled 5G on my phone on account of it simply does not work if you're inside a building made of concrete which is where I live and work and shop. Last I checked there is no deprecation timeline for LTE in the US, and since it's in so many things now it will probably have a support timeline more comparable to like FM radio. So they should just stop trying to innovate where there's no value to be added and focus on software that isn't ass and battery life.

Okay, fine, let's say 6G is real. The infrastructure to create it is exponentially more expensive than 5G because of the distance each cell tower covers. Also, people are too stupid and don't realize they are getting 4G when carriers lie and claim they're getting 5G. It was obvious when jumping from 3G to 4G because you could finally stream a video but there is no "normie litmus test" with 5G.

5G is only beneficial in dense, urban areas.
If you live anywhere normal the difference is minuscule at best.
I wouldn't trust the 3GPP with anything, they're probably the most incompetent standards org alongside the HDMI Forum and Wi-FI Alliance.
3G was supposed to bring video calling to the masses and yet I've never seen it actually used or even a working in-person demo.
4G gave us the amazing VoLTE that has at least 3 different, incompatible implementations and there's no way of knowing if your device will actually work on your carrier.
5G first pushed mmWave, then when they realized it doesn't work if a mosquito flies in-between and breaks line-of-sight, so then they pivoted to IoT and as if every smartbulb and doorbell would have a modem and SIM slot on board.
I don't know what angle they'll play with 6G but I'd bet everything on it failing horrendously.

Never once seen 5GUltra Wideband speeds despite living in an area where its supposedly available. Get normal 5G speeds but who gives a fuck about that? the towers are not numerous or far reaching enough for it to matter unless you live in a city another level of speed won't matter in any meaningful way.

5G running in non-standalone mode (LTE baseline, 5G transmission only during sustained data transfer) only makes difference when download a lot of data. Since NSA deployments generally only allocates frequencies over 1700 MHz+ for 5G, even that large download speed improvement is only available if you're using your phone outside.

It's been 7 years since 5G first got turned on, and only a handful of carriers enabled SA mode which is the prerequisite for the biggest killer feature of 5G, the low latency mode. They can't be bothered to enable 5G SA yet they're already talking about 6G to force people to upgrade phones. Fuck these companies.
