Yeah, 300 mph when you are within LOS 100’ of the tower and not holding the phone when it is in your hand.

The customer maybe cares whether the phone they buy is compatible with their carrier’s infrastructure. Otherwise, 4G went from new and buggy to mainstream to enhanced with 256QAM, MIMO and carrier aggregation. Which of course 5G infrastructure will also have, but performance is on a continuum, it doesn’t take quantum leaps every 10 years. 5G is actually something that carriers want, but they try to sell it like something customers can feel and touch and will change their lives … as long as they buy a new $1000 phone. The other misunderstanding is 5G is often used to mean small cells and 24-80 GHz short range high capacity transmission. It remains to be seen where this is deployed and what caveats come with mmWave in the real world. But the small cell mmWave stuff is a whole other topic than the other enhancements going from 4G to 5G, but the marketing people like to lump them all together. It’s like we have cars that go 300 mph and get 50 mpg. Oh, not at the same time, not on the same roads, and in fact not the same cars, but we can conflate them in our advertising because we really want you to buy a new car.

Not sure why it would be considered fraudulent Mike. Do you know something I don’t? We are wireless, we use sub 6GHz channels and mmwave 24-60GHz channels, isn’t that at least a major portion of the terminology of 5G currently? All we would need to do to fully cover the 5G concept is throw up some LTE AP, lol!

Would that be bad to do? Or would it be riding the ‘wave’ of marketing about to flood the cell phone market?
