I'm curious as to why 5G is on the requirements list.

3G made web browsing viable. 4G made streaming video viable. I haven't seen any new applications enabled by 5G on end-user smartphones.





Latency and throughput from a multi-thousand (literally, in the age of IOT and M2M) user network, massive MIMO and beamforming that LTE doesn't support, etc.
