In today’s earnings call, AT&T CEO John Donovan shared some big news about AT&T’s progress towards launching 5G. Donovan announced that mobile 5G is almost here, saying, “AT&T is on track to be the first wireless carrier to introduce mobile 5G services in the United States in the next few weeks. This will be standards-based 5G.”
Verizon launched their home 5G service earlier this month, but Verizon’s network does not utilize international 5G standards and it not considered to be true 5G by all industry experts. AT&T’s promise to deliver standards-based 5G, and to make it available while mobile instead of just for a fixed location, is a big advancement. The lucky cities to see AT&T’s mobile 5G includes Dallas, Atlanta, Waco, Charlotte, Raleigh, and Oklahoma City, with six as yet unnamed cities planned for the next few months.
