    Theoretically, 4G networks consume as much traffic as 5G networks, but in practice, 5G consumes more data.

    In essence, both 4G and 5G networks are just the standard of a generation of communication technology, and the data that improves performance (network speed) is not related to the size of traffic consumption. Because what affects traffic consumption is the size of the data of the open destination. It's like a movie, if we use a 5G network, a few minutes is fine; If you use a 4G network, it can be completed in about half an hour.

    But because the data size of the ** movie is fixed, the amount of traffic consumed is also fixed. So, theoretically, a 4G network consumes as much traffic as a 5G network.

    Human factors: As we all know, the speed of 5G is at least 10 times that of 4G, if we find out that it is wrong after more than ten seconds of a movie, then in the time period when we find that it is wrong, 5G must have more data than 4G, so more traffic is wasted. Platform Factor:

    When we open a mobile game, some businesses will make different settings according to the network speed in order to give users a better browsing experience, such as special effects, frame rates of the screen, etc. Therefore, 5G networks can enjoy a better gaming experience while also paying more traffic consumption; From the above analysis, it can be concluded that although operators advertise 5G networks, 4G networks consume as much traffic as 5G networks! However, in the actual use process, it will be affected by many factors, resulting in more data consumption of 5G!

    No, it's because the speed of 5G is faster than 4G, and playing games and watching ** enjoy a smoother Internet experience, which often gives users the illusion that 5G consumes more traffic than 4G. At present, Telecom's 5G** starts from 129 yuan, divided into 6 levels, and the traffic rate is up to 300GB. Compared with 4G in the same gear**, 5G** contains more traffic resources, the unit price of traffic is more favorable, and provides 5G network.

    services, business, membership and other rights and interests. Users can choose the right 5G** according to their actual needs.

    No, it won't. Traffic will not increase as a result of network upgrades. The 5G network improves the speed of uploading and **, because the speed is faster, so with the same amount of data, you spend less time, for example**1GB size movie, using the 5G network** may only take 1 10 times of the 4G network, but the amount of traffic you spend does not change.

    The 5G network is the same as the 4G network, which is the basic function of the 2113 mobile phone, and the specific traffic usage is not directly related to the basic function of the 5261 series.

    The amount of traffic consumed is determined by the web pages visited, the file size of 4102**, the definition of the ******, etc., which make the 1653 use scenario unique, and in the same use scenario, there will be no difference in the traffic consumed by the mobile phone under the 5G network and the 4G network.

    The main advantage of 5G networks is that the data transfer rate is much higher than that of previous cellular networks, up to 10Gbits, which is faster than current wired internet and 100 times faster than previous 4G LTE cellular networks.

    Another advantage is the lower network latency (faster response time) of less than 1 millisecond, compared to 30-70 milliseconds for 4G. Due to faster data transfers, 5G networks will not only serve mobile phones, but will also be general home and office network providers, competing with cable network providers.

    Previous cellular networks provided low-data-rate Internet access for mobile phones, but a cell phone tower could not economically provide enough bandwidth as a general Internet provider for home computers.

    Extended Information: 5G Network Features:

    2. The air interface latency level needs to be about 1ms to meet real-time applications such as autonomous driving and telemedicine.

    3. Large network capacity, providing the connection capacity of hundreds of billions of devices to meet the communication of the Internet of Things.

    4. The spectral efficiency is more than 10 times higher than that of LTE.

    5. Under continuous wide-area coverage and high mobility, the user experience rate reaches 100 Mbits.

    6. The traffic density and connection density have been greatly improved.

    7. System collaboration and intelligent level improvement, which is manifested in multi-user, multi-point, multi-antenna, multi-ingestion collaborative networking, as well as flexible automatic adjustment between networks.

    The traffic is the same, it's just that the speed is much faster than 4G.

    The consumption of traffic depends on the size of the content resource itself, and the traffic generated under the 5G network is the same as that generated under the 4G network, and the old section will not generate more traffic because of the fast speed of 5G. While the 5G network brings a better experience, please pay attention to the remaining traffic in time. If the flow is insufficient, it is recommended to choose the appropriate flow package or ** through the channels such as the combustion, the wide passer, the Yusheng service** or the handheld business hall.

    Because I think this is a trend that has been updated from generation to generation.

    I remember that in the early years, when 2G was used, traffic was so expensive. Later, the 3G and 4G generations were cheaper than the first generation in terms of traffic, but at the same time, it was true that the traffic was passing faster and faster. That's what we all understand - cost traffic.

    Introduction

    So with the advent of the 5G era, I also think that 5G must be more expensive than 4G. Because that's a phenomenon, I think.

    From 3G to 4G, the kind of ** clarity is completely on the next level. Then with the advent of the 5G era, then those**Blu-ray, etc.** should also be smoother and better. Then at the same time, the amount of traffic spent will definitely increase.

    I don't think it's a contradiction.

    The consumption of traffic depends on the size of the content resource itself, and viewing the same content under the 5G network is the same as the traffic generated under the 4G network, and it will not generate more traffic because of the fast speed of 5G. While the 5G network brings a better experience, please pay attention to the remaining traffic in time. If the traffic is insufficient, it is recommended to choose the appropriate traffic package or ** through customer service ** or handheld business hall and other channels.

    Hello pro 3

    5G will not consume more traffic than 4G, but the rate of 5G will be faster than 4G, that is, 5G and 4G are the same thing, 5G may only take 1 second, and 4G will take 10 seconds. Relatively speaking, in the same time, 5G may take more time, so it will lead to more traffic consumption, so don't worry about traffic consumption.

    Hello, now the highest mobile phone network is 4G, and the 5G network has not yet been launched, and the cost performance of 4G mobile phone traffic is still OK, which is much cheaper than 2G and 3G traffic. However, you need a 4G phone to use the 4G network.

    Summary. Definitely, although the numerical size of the traffic is the same, but the transmission rate of the 5G network is higher than that of the 4G network, taking the mobile phone as an example, when the user uses the mobile phone to open WeChat (chat), short**platform (browsing**), browser (browsing the web), it will involve the problem of caching and preloading, and the faster the network speed, the faster the cache and preloading, and the more traffic will be consumed. Will 5G use more traffic than 4G?

    The answer is yes, although the numerical size of the traffic is the same, but the transmission rate of the 5G network is higher than that of the 4G network, taking the mobile phone as an example, when the user uses the mobile phone to open WeChat (chat), short**platform (browsing**), browser (browsing the web), it will involve the problem of caching and preloading, and the faster the network speed, the faster the cache and preloading, and the more traffic will be consumed.

Will 5G use more traffic than 4G? The answer is yes, although the numerical size of the traffic is the same Zen God, but the transmission rate of the 5G network is higher than that of the 4G network, taking the mobile phone as an example, when the user uses the mobile phone to open WeChat (chat) Brother Zi, short **platform (browsing**), browser (browsing the web), it will involve caching, pre-loading problems, and the faster the network speed, the faster the cache and pre-loading, and the more traffic will be consumed.

    I'm sorry I don't understand, but can you elaborate on that?

    It's definitely a lot of consumption.
