Samsung Tests New 5G Network That Delivers

If you’ve got a smartphone, chances are good that you’ve also got access to one of the many 4G networks. At the best of times, these networks can hit speeds of 10-20 megabit per second. But Samsung’s got a new experimental networkthat can push 1.2 gigabits per second at highway speeds That second part is important for two reasons. The first is obvious – many people use their phone on the go. In the car, I’ll stream Pandora and pull up maps all the time. But what a lot of people don’t know is that when traveling at high speeds – as Y1 Games people often do with their phones – it’s much harder to transmit data at decent rates. So seeing this kind of test done in non-ideal, non-laboratory conditions, is a lot more promising than someone saying they managed to Y1 com move a ton of data from one side of a small room to Y1 apk another. Even if it’s only half as effective, we’re still talking about 30x times faster than just about any cell network currently available.cnx.cmd.push(function(){cnx({"playerId":"e3616d04-4972-4839-a63a-c6975e2e9731","settings":{"advertising":{"macros":{"AD_UNIT":"/23178111854/od.kotaku.com/article","CHILD_UNIT":"article","POST_ID":"1646837620","POST_TYPE":"post","CHANNEL":"uncategorized","SECTION":"","SUBSECTION":"","CATEGORIES":"uncategorized","TAGS":"","NOP":"0"},"timeBeforeFirstAd":0}}}).render("cnx-player-main")}); God, I love the future.
