There’s a lot of buzz around 5G technology these days. And it’s not just tech giants like Samsung, Ericsson and Huawei that are getting excited. Everyone from consumers to governments are paying attention. And with the excitement comes no small amount of controversy. But what’s all the hype about? And for starters, what exactly is 5G? Technology website Inventiva explains:

In part, this is because it enables download speeds 10 to 20 times faster than the 4G networks of today.

With such speed and capacity, 5G is expected to transform everything around us.
