      AnonD-794992, 16 Aug 2019I guess you need only the 5g modem, but you need the phone ... moreI have a Huawei mobile 4G router ... brilliant & compact device, excellent for roaming. Cost me $25 from my telco provider. I would definitely buy their mobile 5G router if they available for similar price.

      However, I would never buy another Huawei phone - the length of their software updates are terrible.

          Peregrine, 16 Aug 2019Wow, though there were millions of order, i thought huawei ... moreExactly. How many units did Hooway make by the time the first flash sale happened, or were made available during the first flash sale and sold at the end of the first flash sale? Why don't these Chinese companies tell us that instead of saying they sold out or concluded the flash sale after a short period of time?

              So what's the exact number of units sold? Did all the Chinese people that pre-ordered this 5G model, and the ones that ordered it the day the first flash sale happened, acquire said model? And why does the guy in the article look like MrMobile?

                Bewildered , 16 Aug 2019Think now. There are some who are on a delayed cycle so pu... more"The problem is Apple are trying to sell a 4G iPhone in a 5G world"

                So, how many 5G phones compose this "5G world"?
                Saying 1 million sounds exaggerated tbh. I bet is not even half of that.

                  Flash sale sold out? Typical Chinese tactics probably 50k unit

                    Cost $900 and some people still think Samsung is overpriced

                      This guys never say how many

                      1, 20, 300, a million?

                          Shui8, 16 Aug 2019I dont see the point of buying this...last year specs with ... moreThink now.
                          There are some who are on a delayed cycle so purchasing a 4G phone now is maybe their second 4G handset

                          Put simply 4G handsets cannot be upgraded to 5G either by software or hardware.

                          There are some who are aware of the above and instead of buying a 4G handset, they have decided to be 5G ready now as simply again, even now the 5G internet speed dwarfs that if 4G, networks are not going to increase their existing 4G internet speed

                          Flagship phone (4G) have just incorporated the 5G modem

                          The clever people do not have to upgrade their 5G phones until substantial specs improvements are made

                          Apple has always had 2020 as the launch date for their 5G iPhones, the 2019 iPhone as you can see is minimally tweaked over the 2018 iphone

                          The 2019 iPhone purchase may not be a problem if only say a second 4G iPhone

                          The problem is Apple are trying to sell a 4G iPhone in a 5G world, the there are many iPhone user that would have preferred a 5G iPhone now, do they wait another year?

                          Also contracts now mean that 5G iPhone become an option in 2021

                          Japan 2020 Olympic Games will utilise 5G extensively

                          These may be the initial 5G handset , internet speed and coverage will increase

                          In 2021 these handsets will be mid high to high-end

                          Apple will not go broke, the 2019 iPhone could take a sales hit due to some opting for sn Android 5G phone, or others waiting for 4G

                          The whole 5G handset is Flagship 4G phones with a 5G modem, as there is no need to improve on the specs now

                          Apple were the first to do this but theirs was financial
                          The iPhone 6 (4.7 inch display) is the iPhone 5 (4.0 inch display)
                          Those people who took out a two year contract for the iPhone 5, and upgraded to the iPhone 6 have in fact gotten the same phone iPhone 5 it added the non phone related Apple pay, don't take my word for it do a comparison

                            Big population. No surprises there. Surprising thing would be they only make less than a million unit of those phones for a country with more than a billion people. So sad.

                                    abigfanoftechs, 16 Aug 2019$140 is the sweet spot for me. :-)I guess you need only the 5g modem, but you need the phone also for the chip to be functional :D

                                      "The rest of the specs are pretty much the same except for the lowered battery capacity compared to the vanilla version and the support for 40W SuperCharge fast charging. And, of course, the 5G connectivity."

                                      3.5mm. 3.5mm is missing dude. Don't say it's pretty much the same without mentioning 3.5mm.
