Apple’s late adoption of 5G does not mean much

Challenges remain says IDTechEx

Fruity cargo cult Apple’s late integration of 5G into all four newly announced iPhones does not mean that the tech is suddenly going to get popular according to IDTechEx.

IDTechEx warns, that even with the blessing of Apple, many challenges await before 5G becomes ubiquitous.

While the industry is praying that a wave of 5G smartphones will encourage the demand for 5G services and accelerate the deployment of 5G base stations in the coming years. The IDTechEx report, “5G Technology, Market and Forecasts 2020-2030”, said the technology still has a few issues that need ironing out.

The report forecasts 430K new installation of 5G base station globally in 2020 and such number will boost to over four million in 2030.

But power consumption is a concern as 5G signal will consume significantly higher power than the 4G smartphone.
