I wonder any telco expert here can answer my question
When the telco drop 3G, will the 3G spectrum immediately repurpose to 4G to increase 4G coverage and speed?

QUOTE(jsnhoh @ Dec 27 2021, 12:48 PM) I m not expert. But by terminating the 3g spectrum, telcos have more budget to "upgrade" the infra ( in theory). And frequency interruption also will be reduced. This is the objective of dropping 3G, because it gives frequency bands used by 3G to 4G, for example, Digi uses 2100Mhz for 3G, so my question is, when Digi drop 3G, will the 2100Mhz spectrum immediately or very soon utilised by 4G technology? if telco dropped 3G and it will take few months for them to roll out 4G for frequency bands used by 3G, that will be bad experience for end users. |

QUOTE(SleeplessEyes @ Mar 3 2022, 09:32 AM) Tell me. What's the ultimate benefit of 5G apart from super speed? Most people don't understand the major benefits of 5G, it is not only for mobile phones, it is also targeting for auto robot, IoT devices to enable automation, 5G can handle more devices that simultaneously connecting to 5G it's like a Ferrari, Lambo, built for hyper speed but if its for normal person to get from point A to B or even just goto nearby mamak shop, then even a Myvi can get to where he/she wants to go. No need for ultimate speed. I view 5G is like VIP Exclusive club. And the govt is forcing rakyat marhaen just to give way to the Elite. Someone should create a petition to plea not to shutdown totally the 3G. We rakyat still need the kampung roads when 4g highway is jammed. These robots/IoT devices can do many things to replace human jobs, such as self driving car, smart farming, traffic monitoring and control for jam-less public transport. this is the reason why many countries want to roll out 5G. dgboy liked this post
