You can turn it on. When the 5G network switch or option is turned on, the terminal has the ability to access the 5G network (if there is no 5G network, it can automatically access the 4G network); when the 5G network switch or option is turned off, the terminal can't access the 5G network, but it can access the 4G network.

The main advantage of 5G networks is that data rates are much higher than previous cellular networks, up to 10 Gbit/s, which is faster than current wired Internet and 100 times faster than previous 4G LTE cellular networks.

Another advantage is lower network latency (faster response times) of less than 1 millisecond, compared to 30-70 milliseconds for 4G. Because of the faster data transfer, 5G networks will not only serve cell phones, but will also become general home and office network providers, competing with wired network providers.

Network Characteristics

1. Peak rates need to be up to the Gbit/s standard for large data transfers such as high-definition video, virtual reality and more.

2. The air interface latency level needs to be around 1ms to meet real-time applications such as autonomous driving and telemedicine.

3, large network capacity, to provide hundreds of billions of devices connection capacity, to meet the Internet of Things communications.

4, spectrum efficiency should be more than 10 times higher than LTE.

5, continuous wide-area coverage and high mobility, the user experience rate reaches 100Mbit/s.

6, the traffic density and the density of the number of connections increased dramatically.

7, the system synergistic, intelligent level of enhancement, the performance of multi-user, multi-point, multi-antenna, multi-uptake collaborative networking, as well as flexible automatic adjustment between the network.
