I think it will be some time before 5G coverage is complete, I am sure years down the road it will be very complete since it's crutial to things like self-driving cars and so on. As for Mark's hope that this year's iPhone 12 include some sort of fingerprint authentication in addition to Face Id I highly doubt this will be the case. My wife and I both have an iPhone 8 and we'll stick with it for at least one more year, I don't think this year's phones are going to be that convincing with their first generation 5G support and smaller batteries.
