"The fifth generation of mobile networks won’t just allow for unprecedented technologies that seemed unfathomable just years ago but will do so while resolving many issues associated with 4G LTE, thus improving existing use cases of wireless communications. Across 77 countries studied, 4G download speeds are between 31.2 Mbps and 5.8 Mbps faster at the best hour of day compared with the slowest hour of the day. Congestion on current 4G networks is holding back speeds highlighting the need for new 5G capacity to relieve pressure. Opensignal’s analysis uncovers that during the optimal time of day — usually when most users are asleep — networks are capable of enabling a significantly faster download experience than during awake hours."
