Who would have thought that Covid-19 would take a bite out of 2020, but in the world of technology, being confined was not synonymous with standing still; on the contrary, it was a moment of change, of necessary change.
From Electrotel Barcelona in January we already advanced the trends that would transform telecommunications in 2020.
We made a selection of the 3 most relevant trends of 2020 and how they will affect both users and professionals.
Well, one of them has already arrived and by the big door, we are talking about 5G, and how could it be otherwise, the main operator of the country, Telefónica, has turned on its network for the fifth generation of mobile telephony, already available in all the autonomous communities.
They say that 5G is already available and that by the end of the year it will be covering 75% of the population.
The goal is to have a 5G without exceptions for everyone, and that all autonomous communities can enjoy it, a breakthrough also for individual users and companies, where we can enjoy the benefits of a full connection as the service allows the development of additional services thinking of billions of interconnected devices that share or send information to control centers for decision making.
What exactly is 5G?
It is a connection technology that ensures greater mobile coverage, with more reliability and much higher data rates.
To understand it better: 5G will make it possible to download 4K movies in a matter of seconds. In short, more reliability, more speed, greater coverage and the ability to connect millions of devices.
The Internet of Things
Enormous benefits are expected for Spain with the new generation of 5G telephony, but are we ready for everything to happen in a millisecond? If in fact every day we see more normal what happens in a millisecond, a remote surgery, an autonomous car, we are surrounded by billions of devices connected to each other.
It is becoming clearer that 5G technology will be able to handle everything.

Thank you very much to everyone for counting on us.
