So I’ve never been a fan of his; I generally find him to be a hyper opinionated bloviator.
But this latest is by far his worst. He makes so many misleading, inaccurate and flat out wrong statements, I lost count half way through . Normally I’d just ignore him but apparently he’s arguably the most read pontificator on the Verge now that Patel went to work for Google.
I will admit that the rollout of 5G has been both slower and more problematic than I expected, but especially with the increased proliferation of the sub 6 bands, there have been real tangible benefits to anyone with a 5G device.
So yes, I’ll fully admit that I’m a proponent of the potential of 5G, but I am just baffled by the point of this. Tell people to by the iPhone SE??? Just try to convince people that he’s smarter than everyone else??? (that’s the scenario i pick)
EDIT: And it’s like he hasn’t even read the industries own whitepapers on where and who mm wave benefits
This is the type of stuff that makes me want to throw things at my computer
Apple’s iPhone SE is the nail in the mmWave 5G coffin - The Verge
EDIT: And Sagan over at PC Mag is joining the stupidity parade this morning as well…
