5G brings three new aspects to the table: greater speed (to move more data), lower latency (to be more responsive), and the ability to connect a lot more devices at once (for sensors and smart devices).

It would be cool if cell towers could actually be 5G wifi transmitters so homes could essentially become wireless.

There's no high speed Internet out here in the country where I live (except for satellite, which sucks and is way overpriced).

I have a wireless hotspot from Consumer Cellular that acts as a cell modem to deliver the Internet to me. Yes, it isn't the fastest, but it beats satellite hands down.
