Comment on Is it time for 6G already? Traffic analysis says yep
Aux@lemmy.world 10 months agoDon’t you watch HDR movies in 4K on the go? Ok, not 4K, but people stream a lot of HD videos all the time. As well as steam from their phone cameras to Facebook and Twitch. Another issue is that high density cities must have way too many people trying to do all this bandwidth stuff at once.
And video calls. Don’t forget video calls.

How much extra do I have to pay to not be in video calls? I almost never watch videos while mobile but I guess some people do. I doubt if I could tell the difference between SD and HD on a phone screen though.

If you personally don’t do something it doesn’t mean that the majority of the population is like you. Worldwide traffic use average is 20GB per person. What’s even more interesting, is that US number is lower than average in Europe, the Middle East and East Asia. And guess what? More than half of the world’s population lives in Europe, the Middle East and East Asia. So if you live in US, it’s not just you, but also people around you who are not representative of mobile internet use.
