5G is ready to go, faster network speed, lower latency, so that everyone is full of expectations, major companies also want to launch their own 5G equipment as soon as possible. Although Samsung Mobile President Gao Dongzhen has confirmed that the new flagship Samsung Galaxy S10 will not support 5G technology, because the 5G commercialization agreement signed by South Korea came into effect in March 2019, but this does not mean that Samsung has no action on 5G. This does not, Samsung brought the 5G baseband Exynos Modem 5100.

The Samsung Exynos Modem 5100 baseband is built on a 10nm process. It is also a full Netcom baseband, supporting 2G GSM/CDMA, 3G WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, HSPA and 4G LTE. The support for 2G CDMA is mainly for voice and SMS functions. Normal use.
In terms of download speed, the maximum download speed of the Samsung Exynos Modem 5100 in the 6GHz band is theoretically 2Gbps, ie 250MB/s, the millimeter wave band can reach the download rate of 6Gbps, and the 4G download speed can also reach 1.6Gbps, compared with the current 4G. The network is much higher.
The Samsung official also emphasized that the Samsung Exynos Modem 5100 is the world's first 5G baseband that fully complies with the 3GPP standard and is expected to ship annually.

In contrast, Qualcomm Xiaolong X50, as the world's first 5G baseband chip for mobile terminals, although the Snapdragon X50 achieves gigabit speed, it only supports the 28GHz band, and only specializes in 5G network in the early days. Intel's first 5G baseband chip Intel The XMM 8060 and Huawei Balong 5G01 support both 28GHz and Sub-6GHz. The Huawei Balong 5G01 is based on the 3GPP standard. However, these three chips can be backward compatible with 2G/3G/4G networks through dual connectivity. CDMA format.
Compared with 3G, Qualcomm's monopoly in 4G era, the upcoming 5G era seems to be more friendly to mobile phone manufacturers. Currently, domestic brands such as ZTE and Huawei have already achieved certain results in the 5G field, and it is said that Huawei's 5G patent fee is lower than Qualcomm. Now, Samsung has also obtained some initiative. Next, who will be the first to launch a 5G mobile phone and go public?
In fact, Samsung's layout in the 5G field is not inferior to other mobile phone manufacturers.
Samsung
In July this year, Samsung announced the launch of its first 5G chip 8GB LPDDR5 10nm DRAM with ultra-high speed, low power (LP), 6400 Mb/s transfer rate equivalent to 51.2GB of data or 14 full HD in one second. Video files, with 30% lower power consumption, maximize mobile device performance and extend the battery life of your smartphone!
Not long ago, Samsung just announced that it will invest 25 trillion won ($22 billion) in the next three years, focusing on artificial intelligence, 5G, automotive and future technology development research. Samsung has also repeatedly mentioned 'by 2020, All of its smart devices are equipped with artificial intelligence technology, not limited to smart phones, smart TVs, smart refrigerators, etc.'
Gao Dongzhen also pointed out that 5G mobile phone will be launched around March 2019. This mobile phone will be the first Samsung 5G mobile phone. Not surprisingly, this 5G mobile phone will use Samsung Exynos Modem 5100 baseband and Samsung 8Gb LPDDR5 DRAM chip.
