Lost amid the 5G phone hype, analysts say, is a little-known fact: None of the high-priced 5G phones currently being sold in carrier stores can access both 5G mmWave-and-sub-6GHz networks.-It’s one of the main reasons why you shouldn't-jump on the 5G hype train too early (https://www.pcworld.com/article/3454301/upgrading-to-a-5g-phone-whens-the-right-time.html).-But that will change during the first quarter of 2020, Qualcomm senior executives said during the company's Snapdragon Technology Summit in Maui, Hawaii.
As it stands now, 5G is basically an either-or proposition. The OnePlus-7T Pro 5G McLaren Edition that T-Mobile announced as it “turns on” its 5G network on December 6 (https://www.t-mobile.com/coverage/4g-lte-5g-networks?gclsrc=aw.ds&ds_rl=1082060&ds_rl=1272987&ds_rl=1264208&cmpid=ADV_PB_P_19NETWRK5G_43700040225243495_395364 075007&gclid=Cj0KCQiAz53vBRCpARIsAPPsz8WlcLLh0eaTuvudHdKg SUmWASMgeLhZAiJevXKgkUGR0TOd1Msb8fsaAlBHEALw_wcB) is a “lowband” phone, capable of accessing T-Mobile’s 600MHz 5G network. But it won’t be able to access the short-range, high-bandwidth, and extremely fast mmWave spectrum that Verizon is rolling out, and that T-Mobile has deployed in a handful of cities.-On the other hand, phones like the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G for Verizon are optimized for high-speed mmWave communication, which yield the sort of eye-popping gigabit downloads that dominate headlines, but can't access sub-6GHz frequencies.
