Although we have just gotten used to 5G technology, we are faced with a new network standard. This new connection, also known as 5G-Advanced, or 5GA, will first become widespread in China. In this sense, first the Oppo Find X7 duo and then the Xiaomi 14 Ultra model announced this support. Now, vivo is trying to offer 5.5G support to two of its models via OTA update. Here are the vivo models that will receive 5.5G support.
Vivo models that will receive 5.5G support with OTA update
Smartphone manufacturers use OTA, or automatic software update systems. In this sense, vivo will release an OTA update for 5.5G support. In China, the efforts of the country’s largest telecom companies to offer 5.5G connection to all cities by the end of the year have also mobilized Chinese manufacturers.
In this sense, 5.5G support update will come for the vivo X100 series and vivo X Fold 3 series, namely four models in total. In this sense, 5.5G support will gradually come to all models with 5G support. Ongoing 5G studies in Turkey continue on 5.5G.
The shared vivo X100 Pro image also shows that the model reaches a download speed of 3619.19 Mbps and an upload speed of 160.75 Mbps. So what is 5.5G and what advantages does it have over 5G?
So what is 5.5G and how is it different from 5G?
Download and internet speeds, which increase with 5G technology, go even higher with 5.5G. Accordingly, 5.5G technology will offer data transfer 10 times faster than 5G. Accordingly, 5.5G has download speeds of up to 10 Gbps and upload speeds of up to 1 Gbps. Of course, these are the maximum levels. However, it is quite high compared to the internet speeds we have now. In this sense, 5.5G promises to be 300 percent faster than 5G.
Models that support 5.5G will also have advantages such as network optimization powered by artificial intelligence. Enabling more devices to connect to the network, less power consumption and a wider coverage area are other features of the 5.5G network. In particular, artificial intelligence-supported network optimization seems to offer a solution to the phone and internet connection problem.
