A small but interesting development today. Apple released the latest iOS 27 Beta 6 software to developers yesterday and those who have updated their iPhone’s to the new firmware are finding that it finally shows a “5G<\/a>+<\/em>” symbol (or icon, if you prefer), when in areas covered by a 5G<\/a> Standalone (5GSA) based mobile broadband network.<\/p>\n

The 5G<\/a> Standalone technology offers a pure end-to-end 5G network that can deliver ultra-low latency times, greater energy efficiency, better speeds (particularly uploads), network slicing, improved support for IoT devices, increased reliability and security etc. By comparison, early 5G networks used a Non-Standalone (NSA) approach, which was hobbled by being partly reliant upon slower 4G<\/a> infrastructure.<\/p>\n

At present not all mobile operators and devices will visually distinguish whether their customers are connected to a regular 5G NSA or 5G SA network. Most Smartphones will thus show a regular ‘5G<\/em>‘ symbol regardless, while others might show ‘5GSA’ or ‘5G+’. Suffice to say, experiences do vary between devices and operators, but Apple’s shift to use a ‘5G+<\/em>‘ symbol should help to set the pace for others. The change partly links back to yesterday’s EE<\/a> news (here<\/a>). The final iOS v27 release is due out next month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
