Movistar has recently been making certain improvements for video game players. Knowing that the quality of the connection can be key to the outcome of a competitive game and having their own eSports teams, it is being a frequent field of improvement.
If they had already presented an option to prioritize the traffic of the gaming devices within those that make up a fiber network, now the improvement reaches mobile data.
An increase in the speed of 5G
Gaming Boost is the mobile data equivalent to gaming mode for fiber users, who from the Smart WiFi app can choose a device connected to the WiFi network for which traffic will be prioritized.
However, being connected on the street or simply through mobile data, there was no this improved mode to play mobile video games at the highest quality. Until now, that Movistar has started to offer Gaming Boost as an option.
“Power up your gaming experience with a Gaming Boost. More speed, less latency, better response. Activate your Boost for 120 tokens and get ready to move to the next level of gaming.”
It must be remembered that mobile data uses the capacity available at all times in the network, which depends on variables such as the number of simultaneous users on the antenna, so a minimum quality can never be guaranteed. However, by acquiring this turbo mode, the 5G network prioritizes the connection to cloud gaming services and optimizes the gaming experience .
