Thanks, Swordmaker!

I’ll be upgrading my 6S+ with a 12 Pro Max.

Apple announced it’s latest line of new products today including a new HomePod Mini, and the iPhone 12 in several configurations including a new smaller configuration and a Pro version with a LIDAR sensor on the back capable of 3D measuring a room. —PING!

Which networks are currently 5G?

[Biggirl]

The Androids. LG Velvet has 5G now.

AND they’re donating a fortune to blm/antifa and something called the “Equal Justice Initiative”!!

I’m betting some her that will get orgasmic over this news will bitch and moan on an NFL thread or have already.

Or bash Amazon or Twitter...which deserve to be bashed.

Ah, it is what it is. Almost every corporation is donating and making big speeches on their websites and getting involved in “community” initiatives.

Just try not to be hypocrites when a group you don’t like or a sport you don’t care about does the same thing.

Networks...

[caver]

Wow! $1100 for a phone? What a deal?
Sounds real stupid to me.

“I’ll be upgrading my 6S+ with a 12 Pro Max.”

Don’t make any hasty decisions!

[Mozzafiato]

After the announcement ;-)

AAPL (-2.65%)
BBRY (+8.21%)

[SanchoP]

None. 5g requires a fiber network and more towers.

Wife has 7+, I have Xr
Decisions, decisions

[Covenantor]

AT&T, T-Mobile/Sprint....pushing out beaucoup ads on the web.

[Praxeologue]

I’m thinking of getting an iPad Air and keeping my iPhone X for another year. The Air would fill a gap in my day.

Good strategy?

... 5g requires a fiber network and more towers.

Or fiber to 5g femptocells

My WOW internet service got out of sync with all my Apple Products last night. Took until this afternoon for WOW to stabilize the service.

My 2016 ipad pro’s battery is dying
The new iPad Air looks mighty tasty

People are so clueless. 5G is based on 4G. The radio and baseband IC designers have known about 5G protocols for years. It doesn’t cost any more for 5G.
