Why are few people using 5G after two years of commercial use? In addition to signal problems, there are three main reasons

Starting on May 15, 2019, Huawei was included in the "entity list" of export control by the United States. Since that year, my country has built a large number of 5G base stations, which can be regarded as a side support for Huawei. People are also warmly welcome to the arrival of 5G. .

 

Why are few people using 5G after two years of commercial use? In addition to signal problems, there are three main reasons

Starting on May 15, 2019, Huawei was included in the "entity list" of export control by the United States. Since that year, my country has built a large number of 5G base stations, which can be regarded as a side support for Huawei. People are also warmly welcome to the arrival of 5G. .


However, from the large-scale application of 5G to the present, two years have passed, and the penetration rate of 5G commercial use in my country is not very high. Regardless of the nearly 1 million 5G base stations, they are rarely distributed across the country. The use of 5G mobile phones in our lives is even rarer, and most people still use 4G mobile phones.

 

Not only is the utilization rate and penetration rate of 5G commercial use so low, people’s enthusiasm for 5G is also slowly declining. Many people feel that without 5G there seems to be no impact, 4G is enough, and 5G is not as advertised. It’s so magical that it can change our lives.

 

In addition, people rarely encounter 5G signals in their lives. Now 5G base stations have achieved full coverage in all prefecture-level cities and above. However, there are still many places below prefecture-level cities that do not have 5G, and even if there is In cities with 5G base stations, the signal is not so strong.


I believe that many people who use 5G mobile phones will find that 5G signals are sometimes missing and when they can be connected. It is very metaphysical, so in the eyes of these people, 5G is really tasteless.

 

In fact, 5G commercial use is rarely used in life. In addition to poor signal penetration, there are three very important reasons.

 

 

One is that most users have not yet upgraded to 5G

5G does not mean that as long as you buy a 5G mobile phone, you have to upgrade your mobile phone card and replace it with a 5G data package. This actually brings a high threshold for upgrading 5G, because many people will not actively upgrade their mobile phone cards. These people will think that 4G is enough anyway, and people are connected to WIFI at home. Why? To upgrade to 5G.


In addition to mobile phone cards, there are many people who have not bought 5G mobile phones. In the first half of 2021, the shipment of 5G mobile phones was only 128 million, but by June 2021, the number of mobile phone netizens in my country has reached 1.007 billion. Therefore, there are very few people buying 5G mobile phones in my country. Therefore, use People with 5G are still rare in our lives.

 

Second, the price of 5G is relatively high

In fact, many people are connected to WIFI for a long time, and even the package fee for 4G data is very high, and 5G is higher than 4G. When the three major operators first launched a 5G package, the cost was as high as 128 yuan, and the traffic they gave was only 30GB.

 

According to the Internet speed of 5G, how can such a small amount of data be enough? If you want more traffic data, you have to spend a lot of money every month. In this way, it seems that using mobile phones to surf the Internet every month is not a small expenditure. It is better to connect to WIFI at home and use 4G when you go out, which will have no effect.

 

Third, because ordinary people don’t have to need 5G

5G is indeed faster to surf the Internet, but the corresponding data consumption is also a little bit more, and most people actually do not need such a fast Internet speed, for example, watching videos, no matter how fast the speed, 4G can also Finished reading.

 

Many people will use 5G to download videos to test to show how good 5G is, but in fact, 4G can also download videos, and it consumes much less data traffic than 5G, not to mention that most people are connected to WIFI. Download videos, so videos under 5G are not really just needed.

 

And if you want to play games more smoothly, in fact, 5G does not play a decisive role. Only if the mobile phone performance is good enough, the game will be smoother, and 4G and WIFI are enough to make the game reach the player's desire when the mobile phone performance is good. The desired effect.


All in all, although 5G is not as useless as some people say, in fact, we ordinary people do not need 5G, especially our current mobile phone needs, only 4G is enough, not to mention there is a good tool like WIFI Woolen cloth. The 5G usage rate will be higher in other occasions, such as large-scale live broadcasts and remote operations.

 

Therefore, if you want 5G to become more popular for commercial use, like 4G, you have to wait for many years. You know, when 4G is popularized on a large scale, 3G is still in use.
