5G's Impact on Commerce
summary
Claims rapid 5G rollout delivers 10 gigabits per second for fixed devices and below one millisecond latency, but requires dense urban towers every few blocks and struggles to penetrate buildings. Early deployments begin late 2018; commercial tower-side code execution is tested (Verizon, Jan 31); consumer device support is sparse (Apple targets 2020). Promised wins: streaming VR/AR without local compute (DVD 4.7 GB in ~4s), longer IoT battery life and cheap parking sensors, and synchronous drone/vehicle coordination — feasibility depends on coverage, fiber backhaul and who pays the multi‑billion buildout.
