Avoid Paying for In-Flight Wi-Fi
In the past, if you wanted to take some movies with you to watch on a long flight, you had to plan ahead and download them over Wi-Fi before leaving home, and unless you have a pretty fast home internet connection, you might have to plan even further ahead to leave your iPhone or iPad loading up your videos overnight.
With the kind of speeds that 5G offers, you could easily download several movies while waiting in line to board the flight, letting you comfortably watch them from your device’s local storage without having to stream them over the sometimes dodgy and slower in-flight Wi-Fi. With Netflix and other streaming services offering offline playback, 5G will offer a convenient way to grab a few episodes of your favourite show to watch later as soon as inspiration strikes.
