I am usuing a flip phone, easier for my nuropathic fingers to manage. Even if I did switch back to a smart phone, I don't want 5G, I use mine to call and sometimes text, that's it.

I don't either. There are always those who want the latest gadget no matter what.

Or they need a new phone and that is their option. Eventually that will be all you can find. It’s like wanting to buy a dumb Tv and finding they only sell smart ones.

I hope not, 4G does just fine by me, but I'm sure in a few years there will be no choice.
Ugh another gadget I don't want or need, I like my dumb TV.

I'd rather not pay the extra money, I'm like Jack Benny, cheap cheap LOL

Showtalk said:I’m not sure why anyone needs a 5G.
For the speed. At least if they bother to put up a tower close enough.
It blows the socks off of 4G. The part of the RF spectrum it is in is significantly higher frequency than the 4G networks.
The down side is, the range is a lot shorter, which is a problem in rural areas. It's great in high density areas where people really don't need it because they can get high speed optical fiber straight into their high rise apartment.
So it will probably widen the digital gap between the haves and have-nots.
And contrary to what the conspiracy people think, 5G does NOT spread Covid-19.
