There’s real 5G and then there’s “5G” without the FAST millimeter EMF or MmWave.
Because AT&T and other big Telecoms have been declaring “5G” for years and even displaying the 5GE icon next to your smartphone bars you may have thought your phone had been a 5G phone since 2019, but actually it wasn’t. *It was just marketing.*
I’m here to say that the real 5G is officially here. By “real” we mean the 5G wave that was supposed to power 5G in the first place: The millimeter or mmWave antenna is now in smartphones.
All smartphones have WiFi antennae, Bluetooth Antennae and cell signal Antenna. Each antenna exposes you to a different frequency on the Electromagnetic Frequency Spectrum. The new 5G enabled phones (including the iPhone 13s) have the dreaded Millimeterwave that uses a whole new section of the spectrum.
New true 5G phones will expose your body to a different kind of wave than it’s probably ever been exposed to before*. The mmWave broadcasts at higher frequency than cell, WiFi or Bluetooth signals.*
There’s a lot of speculation about how this will affect us long term, but for now, I’d suggest sticking to a phone without the 5G Mmwave capabilities.
