This sounds exciting to me. It appears the US is positioned to be a leader in this new technology. This article from NBC says it will create new jobs.

From the article “According to some estimates, the wireless industry plans to invest $275 billion in 5G networks, creating 3 million American jobs quickly, and adding $500 billion to our economy

https://www.cnbc.com/2019/05/22/what-is-5g.html

According to management and tech consultancy Accenture, the US wireless industry already generates $475 billion in GDP, supports 4.7 million jobs, and creates $1 trillion in economic output.This will take us to the next level and keep us as a leader.

We better get moving now cause China is moving on this.I read this today:

According to data from IPlytics, a German patent database company, as of March this year, China accounted for 34.02% of the required standard patent applications for 5G communications, while the United States accounted for only 14%.

What are your thoughts on this?
 
I believe I heard 5G works well outdoors, however, it does not penetrate walls very well.
