5G is the beginning of the end for all non-5G phones... Including my all time favorite, LG V20.
Having said that, I am really skeptical about the implementation time frame. I don't believe it will take 1 or 2 years to saturate the coverage everywhere like they are promising. The same way 4G has it covered now.
To get to that level.. I wonder if it will take 4-5 years.
I think "5G in a year" is a marketing thing to sell phones. I think it's nice but now measured in addresses not cities and unless it gets 4G map, will remain irrelevant for a while. My guess in a year major cities will have isolated spots of 5G coverage. 99% of the time, you won't actually hit it. We don't have consistent 4G coverage, and I have the best network available.
It will take a long time to get 5G to where 4G is now. Years.
Yeah, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel but it's very faint.
Another reason why 5G phones do not make any sense now is because they are very expensive. Well over $1000 for S105G. Note 105G will be at least $1500. And there is no coverage.
Kind of like buying an 8K HDTV for $15,000.
