In this age of immediate downloads and online videos, it’s hard to believe that users were once happy to run with speeds as sluggish as 56k. While most people are happy with their current connections, things are getting ready to speed up again. Broadcom is now coming out with a Gigabit-speed Wi-Fi system that will take your phone to the next level.
Speed and Range: The 5G Wi-Fi connection promised by Broadcom will allow faster downloads, and the more powerful chip will extend the range for Internet. This makes it easier to download content from the web when using a mobile device, and larger files will not be difficult to manage for this impressive chip. The wireless range around your home will improve, so you can enjoy the beautiful sunshine and still surf the Internet on your phone.
Minimize Radio Interference: One of the downfalls of our technologically advanced phones is the radio interference that can occur between Bluetooth, LTE and Wi-Fi. This new chip can address those interference problems to improve wireless connectivity and radio functions.
More Users, Less Hassle: With 802.11ac technology, your Internet speed slows down as more people log into the system and start surfing. Easily overloaded, they can become an exercise in frustration if you are trying to do some research from one mobile device while the kids are in another room watching videos. With the 5G connection, more users can log on and make use of the Internet without struggling with a slow connection.
Eliminate the Frustration with Smooth Videos: The written word on the Internet is giving way to videos. It is expected that up to 90 percent of Internet activity globally will be videos. Current technology can experience delays, especially if you have several people accessing the WiFi in one place. With 5G speed and technology, those delays and frustrating stops become a thing of the past. Videos are fast, smooth and enjoyable.
Extended Battery Lives are Welcomed: When your phone is searching for a connection and struggling to complete downloads, it can seriously ding your battery. Some smartphones are criticized for their puny battery life, but the 5G WiFi connection will actually allow your battery to last longer. Fast data transfer means that your phone doesn’t have to work as hard, and the improved range means that you aren’t losing power searching for a connection.
The 5G WiFi connection will soon prove to be the best thing to hit mobile devices since touchscreen operations. Providing users with reliable service and improved connectivity, you will never look at the Internet on a mobile device the same way again. The technology will find its way into products starting in the first part of 2013, so get ready to take your mobile Internet experience to the next level.
