5G should be 100 times faster than current wireless connections, even faster than Google Fiber. Such fast connection and fast response bring new possibilities.
But unfortunately, the start of production and development will not happen before 2018. Of course, that doesn't mean we can't think about what could happen when 5G finally arrives.
Here we have listed some of the things that will be possible with 5G.
Games and new experiences
Games and virtual reality will be possible wherever you are. Whether you're in a cafe, on the beach or in a basement. With the 5G network, you will be able to do all this and that without any delay.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said at MWC that we won't have to wait long for the development of virtual reality when 5G actually arrives. Imagine what you can do with that much speed. Let's say a game connected to a 3D model from Street View where you can walk around and do amazing things in the real world.
Self-driving cars
5G networks have an extremely fast response and it is very sufficient for self-driving cars, among other things. It will also be very useful when cars communicate with each other.
Can you imagine streets without traffic lights or queues? Intersections without crowds and collisions?
At that moment, every car will already be covered with cameras and sensors. Even if an incident happens, every car that happened at that moment will be a witness.
Remote operations
Although even today there are remote operations with a 5G network without lag, it is possible to carry out operations in very remote locations. Lag is one of the main problems when it comes to wireless operations. Imagine if the world's experts could perform operations from an "office" anywhere in the world and the best possible health care would be available to everyone.
Video conferencing as if you were present
Of course, with faster internet comes video conferencing. Of course, even now the internet is fast enough for a solid conversation and video call. But with 5G and say 4K resolution on the big screen it will look like you're really there. Even if the holograms go in the right direction, the imagination and possibilities never end.
Now even with this fast internet lag is a big problem. While the person is talking on the other side via a video link, if you interrupt them, a lag is created, which causes waiting and weaker understanding with the 5G network, all of which goes down the drain.
Web speed like in a movie
If you've seen "The Amazing Spider-Man" when Peter Parker runs a Bing search and gets an automatic page load. Even with the fastest internet connection now, the site loading is not that fast. There is always some time that is needed, especially when it comes to a video or image gallery.
If you would add to that the downloading of movies. Instead of the current speed of half an hour, you could download a Full HD movie in just a few seconds. Pretty cool right?
