Recently, Verizon, the largest U.S. telecom operator, launched 5g ultra wideband network in Chicago and Minneapolis, which is known as the world's first 5g commercial mobile service network with smart phones. However, feedback from all parties shows that the world's first commercial mobile 5g network has a bad start. But what make complaints about 5G mobile network? What make complaints about 5G mobile network?
Jessica dolcourt, editor of CNET, said that she used Motorola's moto Z3 mobile phone to use 5g network near Verizon 5g node for six hours. This experience made her "depressed", "confused" and "completely crazy".
Dolcourt said that the Speedtest network test results showed that sometimes 5g data speed reached more than 600 megabits per second (Mbps) promised by Verizon, sometimes close to 200 Mbps, and sometimes 5g network was displayed on the mobile phone, which operated like 4G.
Chris Welch, editor of the verge, said he spent 18 hours in Chicago using Verizon's 5g network and found that it was' very difficult 'to find 5g network coverage throughout the city, with' quite few signals'. Even close to the 5g node, if it is near the doors and windows of the building, there is still 5g signal, which will be gone a few steps away.
The following is the original text of CNET:
I would like to say that using Verizon's 5g is an exciting experience, and the download speed exceeds my wildest dream. I wish I could tell you that I immediately downloaded the entire music album and streaming video. Unfortunately, after a long day, I can honestly say that I found it confusing. It's depressing. Absolutely crazy. The new network is not one that can magically make your data dream come true. It faces the pain of growing up, and we will have to grow up with it.
Sometimes, Speedtest.net The 5g speed recorded in the benchmark gives us the download speed of more than 600 megabits per second promised by Verizon. Other times it's close to 200Mbps, and there are times when the phone claims to be 5g, but it's much like 4G. I have an upload and download test camp, which I will try in downtown Chicago on Thursday, but it's hard to keep 5g connection long enough to run the most basic tests, and I have to throw these plans out of the window.
Verizon and Motorola are well aware of these issues. I spent hours working with PR representatives from both companies and keeping in close touch with them all day. They all acknowledged the start-up problem and said engineers were tracking the fault location.
It's not a good start, it indicates something isn't working properly - the network, the phone, moto mod accessories or the way they all communicate. This is an awkward place for a network that claims to be the world's first live 5g network.
Verizon's move highlights the operator's belief that rapid and active action in 5g will make it the first mover advantage of what is already the largest network in the United States. 5g is the next generation of wireless technology, which is widely recognized as a solution to the problem of data connection lag and slow download speed of mobile phone.
5g network speed test
The goal of 5g is to revolutionize the industry, increase data connectivity from 10 times the current 4G speed to 100 times, and realize a series of new uses, such as remote surgery and intelligent traffic lights, which communicate with each other to keep traffic flowing.
That's not what I saw. But to be fair, I didn't expect exciting speed either. 5g is a brand-new technology, prone to defects. Verizon has been very aware of the limited coverage and has promised to cover the 5g speed segment of 30 cities by the end of 2019. Although 5g is launched for the first time in a city, network engineers will also expand services, such as Chicago.
With the gradual establishment of 5g network by operators, 5g speed is expected to easily exceed 4G. I spent a day in downtown Chicago testing real 5g speed, far from a well constructed demonstration. That's what happened: all the good and all the bad.
