5G in South Korea is still in the developmental phase.The infrastructure is still under construction, and the first transmitters have been launched just two months ago, so pulling the full potential of 5G is not yet possible.However, the Internet is already on the new generation network, however, works very, very well.
Below are the results of speed tests carried out so far at the Galaxy S10 5G in various places and at different times of the day.
Moje dotychczasowe rekordy to 789 Mb/s (pobieranie) i blisko 65,9 Mb/s (wysyłanie). Rewelacja. Zbliżone wyniki wykręcam jednak w porywach. Często są to okolice 400–500 Mb/s, co i tak jest jednak świetnym rezultatem. W Polsce średnia prędkość internetu mobilnego to — w zależności od operatora — między 18 a 27 Mb/s. Przekroczyć barierę 200 Mb/s jest ciężko.
Okay, and how is it all for practical use of such speeds?
I was able to download 1 GB in 20 seconds
After tedious search, I found a game in Google Play, whose installation file weighs almost exactly 1 GB ("UFC" - precisely 1.01 GB).As you can see in the video below, it took only 20 seconds to download the installation.So it's very good.
This means that at the time of downloading the file (which took place in the room, specifically in the hotel in the center of Seoul) the speed was about 400 Mb/s.This coincides with the results of speed tests, which I usually unscrew.If I were downloading data at such a speed for a long time, it would be 180 GB in an hour.
And I remind you that we are talking about the early stage of the 5G network development.This potentially is able to provide up to 20 times faster data transfer than the one I unscrew now.However, as I explained in an earlier text, fast internet is just one of the many 5g advantages.
