Changing Phones is fast, upgrading those equipment is a much slower process.<br /><br />We need more bands, ( Regulation and Political Issues, the slowest of all ), we need more sites, ( Planning and testing, very slow ), Upgrading all site to 5G....<br /><br />I wonder if it would be better to settle on the current LTE-A, and make a larger leap towards 5G in 2-3 years time. <br /> ksechttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04752786440166006163noreply@blogger.com
