[QUOTE="Glock 40, post: 3483452, member: 32"] Depends on provider but the main thing currently with 5g is to make the little icon turn on. That is the race that carriers are in. There are a couple different types of 5g. SA - Stand Alone or NSA non-stand alone the NSA being what everyone in the USA other than Tmobile is using currently with most planing to go SA in the future. The stand alone will use all 5g core and infrastructure but the standards for it were put out well after 5g radio signaling and radio standards.
