What is 5G?

5G is the next generation of mobile internet connectivity, offering faster speeds and better connections on smartphones and other devices than ever before.

5G should offer connections that are multitudes faster than current connections, with average download speeds of around 1GBps expected to soon be the norm.

The networks will help power a huge rise in Internet of Things technology, providing the infrastructure needed to carry huge amounts of data, allowing for a smarter and more connected world.

With big organisations deep into 5G development, consumers can expect the technology to be deployed in 2020.
