Since the birth of 5G, the "killer application" that everyone has been looking forward to has never appeared. On the contrary, due to the high price of 5G traffic packages, many users are actually still using 4G networks.

Since the birth of 5G, the

Operators are not content with the status quo when facing this situation. For example, the three major operators announced that they will jointly create 5G high-definition video calls. Now, as long as the mobile phone supports VOLTE, you can use the high-definition video call function provided by the three major communication operators, and the effect is quite good. The picture quality is also very fresh, but few people use it. Operators also had high hopes for the video calling function, but unfortunately, the video call function was met with a lukewarm response.

For 5G high-definition video calls, the main reason why it has not developed is:

1. Mobile phone protocols are not unified. This is a very important issue, because when the protocols are not unified, it is very difficult to promote, which is where we are. Your mobile phone needs to be able to support video calls, but this alone is not enough. The other party's mobile phone also needs to support such support, otherwise the call will not be possible, so inconsistent protocols make it difficult for both parties to successfully match.

2. Regarding the tariff issue, for the three major operators, they definitely need to make profits. For many users, they actually do not want to spend such a huge amount of money to use a product.

But there is no doubt that with the increasing popularity of 5G packages, 5G ultra-clear video calls will soon threaten the video call business.
because, fundamentally speaking, 5G ultra-clear calls are achieved through "making a phone call", which is simpler and more original than WeChat. Moreover, 5G ultra-clear video calls use the 5G network to connect. As long as the mobile phone has a signal, it can be connected, while WeChat video relies on "traffic", which will be seriously affected in places with weak signal strength, such as parking lots and elevators. Video call quality. For us ordinary users, the only worry about
is the number of 5G package minutes. Because 5G ultra-clear calls are counted by minutes, you must first activate a 5G package if you want to use this service. At present, most users are still unable to accept the price of 5G packages.

The best solution in the future may be to use 5G ultra-clear calls for phone calls, while WeChat video calls are more suitable for long-term video chats or when there is a WiFI network at home.

Since the birth of 5G, the

5G new call is “new” in technology, “new” in experience, and “new” in service. What the 5G era needs is this kind of "new" force, which breaks tradition, highlights boundaries, integrates technology into life, and allows life to enjoy technology. 5G new calls are just the beginning. In the 5G era, more "new+" will be born one after another. Consumers' eyes are the ruler. History will eventually give the fairest judgment of the 5G era.
