5G is super fast, and wow you Romanians are lucky. But here in America ISPs are grinches who charge you 49.99 for the first year and then increase your price to $80, which is a whole 60% mark-up. So before 5G home Internet was a thing, you only had one provider in the area you lived, and this lack of competition basically allowed them to price gouge us over the years till our bill got to $220 for 100mb. 5G was truly a life saver for my families budget. And you are right about cable Internet being more performant, but 5G did introduce some very much needed competition in the telecommunications space.
I used to have several outages per year with fiber internet. In the year and a half I’ve had 5G home Internet not a single outage. But you are able to get much higher speeds with fiber, so if you had some kind of business that needed like 10 gig speeds, fibers the best choice for that. But for home Internet 5G is much more superior in reliability, and fairness in pricing for the consumer.
Im in the U.S as well, T-Mobile with unlimited 5G home Internet is $50 a month with no commitment. I’ve used hundreds of GB’s per month with 0 cap or slow downs.
Unlimited Internet is a thing now, I pay $50 a month for 5G home Internet. I’m guessing you have one of those dinosaur fiber internet where a technician has to come to your house to install internet.
