A mobile phone is a wireless handheld device that allows users to make and receive calls, it is a device that used to be largely referred to as a “cell phone”.
Mobile phones have over time become “smartphones” because of all of the extra voice and data services they now offer.
In Nigeria today there is a gradual shift to 5G from 3G and 4G as such phones with 5G networks are gradually increasing in the Nigerian market.
What then is 5G? 5G can be described as the fifth-generation technology standard for broadband cellular networks, which cellular phone companies began deploying worldwide in 2019, and is the planned successor to the 4G networks which provide connectivity to most current cellphones. 5G is believed to be 10 to 100 times faster than 4G with a lag time of merely one millisecond. 5G also has a low latency level of about 20 milliseconds.
5G phones are already being shipped into Nigeria from all around the world and if you want to buy one, here are a few affordable 5G phones you can find in Nigeria with their prices and specifications.
