5G explained

Marques Brownlee took a road trip to his nearest 5G city to experience true 5G (as opposed to the fake 5G that is 5GE) for himself.

I love this whole video, but two things stand out. Around 3:55 in, you get a look at Verizon’s 5G hardware, perched on top of a telephone pole. Good to know what these things look like, if you are scouting for a great signal.

And about 5:27 in, you get a sense of the drop-off when you move away from that 5G cell hardware. 5G is an inconsistent experience, though even poor 5G is way faster than the fastest LTE.
