The ultra-high speed, low latency, mass connectivity of 5G is bringing a lot of changes to life, work and entertainment. SHKPNews recently invited the SmarTone team to introduce the newly launched 5G network and the all-new living experience it has brought about.

Seamlessly connecting 4G and 5G

SmarTone is dedicated to providing users with fast, stable, seamless connections. SmarTone's 5G network leverages Ericsson's market-leading Dynamic Spectrum Sharing (DSS) technology to quickly provide wide network coverage across the city. Network resources are utilised efficiently, so SmarTone can provide 4G and 5G services simultaneously with the same spectrum and users can be switched between the 4G and 5G spectrums in no time, ensuring fast, stable, seamless connectivity.

Driving the 5G ecosystem

To bring in more creative 5G services, SmarTone established the Innovation Hub in 2017 and started working with different corporate partners and start-ups to build a 5G ecosystem to drive 5G digital transformation across all industries and contribute to Hong Kong's smart city development.
