For nearly a decade, we’ve worked tirelessly to bring 5G from the lab to real life. Let's explore how we got here.
Every new generation opened a new world to mobile users. Now, with Samsung’s 5G-ready devices, you can unlock the future.
The start of fast
3G was the first step to mobile broadband, transforming the way we lived, worked and played on our phones.
A decade ago, 3G opened the doors to data speeds that allowed us to access media wirelessly. It even blazed a trail for apps — something no mobile user can live without now.
But 3G was still limited in bandwidth, taking up to 10 minutes to download even a short video. We had to do better.
The speed of innovation
We’ve always been early adopters of mobile technology — Samsung was one of the first to introduce 4G devices to the mobile market.
A leap forward in speed compared to 3G, 4G still left something to be desired. Occasional lagging and bandwidth issues don’t fully meet the demands of the always-on population.
The next step in speed
4G LTE-A brought us closer to real-time connections, supporting gaming, mobile HD TV and video conferencing.
Although it ramped up the data speeds from 4G, remaining lag and even the potential for dropped calls kept this connection from satisfying the masses.
The HyperFast generation
This is the fastest available mobile data connection — and Samsung’s already got a lineup of 5G-capable devices to take full advantage.
Now is the time of seamless connectivity and way less waiting. It’s time to experience the real-time, always-connected speeds of 5G. It connects all your devices at speeds 3x faster than 4G, and we’re committed to pushing the 5G innovation further to give you an even better, HyperFast experience.
