Editorial Notes:
China is accelerating the rollout of 5G-Advanced (5G-A) networks across multiple cities, including Beijing and Shanghai, marking a significant leap in speed and connectivity as telecom operators enhance coverage in subways, business districts and rural areas.
The 5G-A is also known as 5.5G by some manufacturers and represents an enhancement over 5G and the step toward 6G connection. It offers significant improvements in capacity, speed, latency, and positioning and is up to 10 times faster than 5G in terms of internet speed.
According to staff from China’s major telecommunication operators, most mainstream smartphone models on the market are already compatible with 5G-A networks, allowing users to enjoy faster speeds without incurring additional charges.
