The "G" in 5G stands for "generation". Wireless phone technology started with 1G in the early 1990s. After that came 2G, allowing text messaging. This was followed by 3G, enabling users to browse the infinite world of web. 5G comes as a giant leap in the technology, promising to enhance speed, coverage and responsiveness of wireless networks.
