Now around the world, a new 5G data transfer technology is being actively tested. It makes it possible to transfer large amounts of information with great speed. The frequency range of the 5th generation of communication will be higher - from 2.4 gigahertz, and the speed can reach 10 gigabits per second. For these reasons, today's smartphones simply will not be able to use the capabilities of 5G.

The main module in them is a signal processor with a radio modem. And he is configured to work in a different frequency range. It is impossible to upgrade or replace the radio modem somehow. So users will have to purchase new gadgets. But all this is a matter of the future. In the meantime, states are anxious to free up frequencies for a new type of communication, and build the appropriate infrastructure for it.

According to the developers, smartphones working with 5G will become smarter. Their owners will be able to more flexibly plan their own life, which will become much more exciting. And it is also expected that 5G will give a new impetus to augmented reality technologies.
