5G is the technology that will be present in our mobile devices during the next decade. It comes to improve the speed, quality and stability that 4G currently offers. This will open an important range of possibilities. We can make use of other technologies and devices that require a better connection. However, the 5G deployment seems not to grow as much as experts expected at this point. We echo news that informs the reasons.
5G deployment lower than expected
It is true that we have been hearing about 5G for a long time and that even in certain areas they can already use this technology. However, the reality is that globally, in general, 5G is not present at all. Very few compatible places and devices today.
This, according to experts , has an explanation. And there are circumstances that are causing companies to have a great short-term interest in having everything ready. This does not mean that the facilities and processes are paralyzed, but it is causing them to expand more than expected over time.
One of the causes is the security implications of 5G. They believe that many commercial companies doubt whether the systems and technology that 5G really needs meets today with everything related to security. We have seen that there have been some cases in which vulnerabilities have appeared.
They also indicate that there are different standards that are still in development. Especially in areas such as the Internet of Things, there is a lot of work to do. We already know that these types of devices are going to use 5G to a large extent. If these devices are still far from having really developed standards, there is less hurry to run this technology.
Of course they report that many mobile phones are not yet compatible with this technology. They believe that the fact that important brands have not yet taken out 5G compatible devices or have recently done so has also caused the rise of networks of this type has not been as expected.
On the other hand, they ensure that users also do not really see a real need in the short term. That is, they do not believe that there is a substantial improvement between using 4G or Wi-Fi networks compared to what 5G provides. This causes them not to be in too much hurry to acquire a compatible terminal, for example.
In short, these are the main causes that experts believe are present and that at least for the moment it has lengthened the time of the real arrival of 5G a little more. For now it will be time to wait for a large part of the population to use it in their day to day.
