What? 4k is literally a resolution, usually 3840x2160 or something around that. 1080p is another resolution, usually 1920x1080. These are never comparable.
The G in 5G stands for generation. This has nothing to do with quality or speed, but it sets an upper limit. You can have 5G that is absolute shit or 5G which is state of the art fastest speed available (until 6G comes out).
I know these things. Doesn’t change what I was saying though.
Netflix has been advertising content in 4k and then streaming it at a lower resolution.
Likewise, the advertising for 5g leads you to believe that it is somehow vastly improved from the previous generation when no guarantee of that exists.
But most importantly, all of this is stemming from a one line joke—it was never a serious comment on 5g or 4k definitions. I’m surprised that you took it that way.
Not in hungary… Here 5G is real, and it has 4G speeds, in exchange, you can get up to 2G speeds with 4G. And it also has 98% coverage, with the 2% following you even in the Telekom building
And for many streaming services, getting true 4K streams costs extra.
Otherwise they just feed you the 4K content but in lower resolution.
So basically, it’s not 4k
It’s like 5g—it is if you believe it is.
wdym ? how is it like 5g ?
The g’s in cellular data have long been devoid of any real meaning, and they keep coming out with more g’s that have essentially no improvements.
Much like how Netflix advertises 4k when the quality is no better than 1080p at best.
