While 5G will enable faster internet speeds, incredible capacity, low latency, and high quality, it is also considered as the gateway technology that will enable the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) and exciting technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), the internet of things (IoT), automation, and robotics to advance and transform our lives and work.

The following are five incredible possibilities that 5G will enable:
1. An enhanced gaming experience. Improved mobile broadband enhances the mobile user experience, particularly when it comes to data-intensive, intense gaming experiences. Once 5G becomes more widely available, it will enable more advanced next-generation gaming experiences such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and even those emerging in the metaverse.

2. Connectivity enhancements for your entertainment. 5G promises download speeds of up to 10gbps, a substantial increase over 4G's maximum upload speed of 150mbps. Apart from enabling faster movie downloads and seamless video streaming, 5G will improve video and audio quality, enabling more interactive and realistic entertainment experiences.

3. Improved and faster access to information for social services. The introduction of 5G would increase network connectivity, giving Filipinos more access to online education and social services such as healthcare. Teleconsultation will progress beyond simply allowing patients to have virtual checkups with their doctors and have their vital signs and other indications such as blood sugar and blood pressure monitored remotely. 5G will also enable surgeons to experiment with the use of augmented reality, virtual reality, and robots during complex surgeries once it is expanded throughout the country.

4. Enhanced operational effectiveness. Companies continuously look for cost-effective ways to innovate operations to provide better service and products to cope with customers’ ever-changing needs. One way is by embracing automation and 5G-driven technologies to help businesses reduce operational costs and be more efficient through intelligent factories for manufacturing, human-to-robot collaboration, and predictive maintenance.

5. A more rapid and efficient mode of transportation. Other countries have already begun to deploy 5G-enabled smart cars that support vehicle-to-everything (V2X) connectivity. Through innovative sensors, the V2X helps minimize travel time and creates a safer environment for pedestrians and cyclists. On the other hand, logistics will become more connected, as 5G enables autonomous vehicles and faster and simplified communications. Urban transportation will also be improved to encourage commuters to take public transport and potentially reduce traffic congestion.
