【推荐1】Nowadays, 5G may be one of the hottest topics. After 3G and 4G, 5G (from “the fifth-generation mobile networks”) becomes the latest generation of mobile communications. China announced the start of 5G in 2019 and now we can use 5G in many cities. As we can see, 5G has brought some great changes.
As a result of the increased size of networks, data transfer (数据传递) becomes much faster. 5G is 10 to 100 times faster than the speed of the 4G network. It may make many new uses possible. For example, you can download a film in just 3 seconds. This used to take a few minutes with a 4G network. What’s more, there will be enough capacity (容量) for everyone to chat online and watch movies on their phones. Scientists say 5G will help the development of self-driving cars and the “5G man-like robot” as well. Most importantly, 5G will help us build the Internet of Things ( IoT, 物联网).For example, on a hot summer day, you could turn on your air conditioning with IoT before you go home. All of these things need very fast Internet speeds. 5G will be the key.
Our technology seems to develop so fast. Some big companies like Huawei and Samsung have started to produce 5G products. 5G technology will make some amazing changes. Let’s wait and see what it will bring.
