T-Mobile signals indicate cheaper 5g phones

-

 Much cheaper 5g phones will enter the U.S. market by 2020, but only T-Mobile and sprint.


Opinion a highly technical new T-Mobile / MediaTek press release declares "independent calls in a multi vendor environment reflecting the actual 5g deployment.". Importantly, MediaTek, which produces low-cost cell phone modems, has now proven its M70 chipset to work on sprint and T-Mobile networks. If I can read correctly between the two lines, that means sprint and T-Mobile's 5g phones could be much cheaper.



"Next year, we will continue to work with T-Mobile to help drive 5g network deployment," TL Lee of MediaTek said in a press release.



When I interviewed Joe Chen, the chief executive of the Department in February, it made more sense. Chen said at the time that his company would have a smartphone chipset ready by the end of 2020, which could reduce the price of 5g phones to around $450.



The first round of 5g mobile phones in the United States cost more than $1000, or - for Verizon's Motorola Z3 and Z4 (on Amazon) - are heavily subsidized by operators and manufacturers to promote 5g adoption.



At present, 5g has three main forms. Most international operators and sprint use intermediate frequency band. T-Mobile will use low frequency band, and at & T and Verizon will use low frequency band to a lesser extent. Both bands use existing cellular frequencies and antennas. Ultra high speed millimeter wave (mmwave) requires a new antenna design and is currently only used by American operators.



Initially, the section focused on the low and medium band 5g. The goal of this idea is to achieve the widest international impact without involving the complexity of millimeter wave antennas. MediaTek's press release touts a separate 5g data call signal, suggesting that T-Mobile and Sprint (especially if they merge) may prompt manufacturers to develop cheaper 5g handsets based on MediaTek.

  During the epidemic, due to the trend of working at home, the demand for laptop computers also increased.  The Surface series of computers that Microsoft has been actively developing in recent years has also recently been updated.

The basic design is similar to the Surface Laptop series, but it uses a 12.4-inch 1536 x 1024 screen, and the body is lighter, weighing only 1.11 kg. What consumers pay attention to is its processor and other specifications.  Although this is an entry-level model, its minimum specifications are also the 10th generation Intel Core i5.
