But will AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon be able to handle the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people jumping onto their still-being-built 5G networks?

    My last iPhone was the 6s Plus. I moved to Android, now with my Sony Xperia 1 MARK II. I’m glad I switched, especially getting Android 11 soon

    Was really hoping to test out 5g before all the iPhone users get on and slow it down. C’mon VZW

    We don’t need 5g. It’ll kill the battery and barely anyone will utilize it with the state of 5G

    No one cares about 5G. Ppl will buy a new iphone because it’s a new iphone. Nothing to do with 5G.

    I’ve had a 5g phone since March and 5g access in my area and it’s completely inconsequential

    Will you be able to toggle between 5G to 4G?

  19. nuyou21

    September 9, 2020 at 12:10 am

    Yep, it’s Apple season. It’s safe to say those all-new iPhone 12’s sales are about to make this year’s Android phones sales look as embarrassing as the still-being-built 5G networks. ????????

    Couldn’t care about 5g when the majority of my data usage is through wifi.

  25. Rocco DeMark

    September 9, 2020 at 1:24 am

    I have the phone x and been wanting to get a new iPhone but I’m on the visible network (Verizon Company) which has been slow to the 5g revolution but I want to be future proof so come on 5g iPhone 12

  26. Tizo Jiyane

    September 9, 2020 at 5:04 am

    Is there even a hype? Or is this just to get apple in the headline

    0:35 is it really the biggest feature?
    0:58 haven’t cellular services always been in the hands of the carriers?
    3:29 do they really have to?

  44. Charly G00R1

    September 9, 2020 at 12:52 pm

    since Apple has never been a network provider what difference does that make with any other past iPhone launch?

  45. Ádám Kullai

    September 9, 2020 at 1:38 pm

    The iPhone is now better in literally no way than a note 20 ultra

  46. Heatjourney

    September 9, 2020 at 2:03 pm

    5g is deadly. But they are forcing you to upgrade. They stopped selling 4g phones. They even forced my grandad who has a basic flip phone to swich his sim card to 5g. It dosent take a rocket scienctist to know a phone tower shouldnt be by the building you sleep by????????the best way atm is make sure not to sleep next to this death trap of a phone

  47. KwanInHD

    September 9, 2020 at 2:58 pm

    I live in the sticks so I’ll never get 5G anyways.

  48. Omar R

    Duh. All hype by Telco’s and ???? to stay relevant

  50. A Light

    September 9, 2020 at 5:51 pm

    ???? AT&T and Verizon 5G is non-existence!
    One corner of a street is not a city! And advertisement are completely false and it’s a SCAM. You can’t advertise something you technically don’t have.
    The only true faster data speed (5G) belongs to T-Mobile.
    Note: 5Ge is another att dirty trick.
