According to the official source, the Balong 5000 supports 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G on a single chip. It effectively reduces latency and power consumption when exchanging data between different modes.
Balong 5000 is the first chipset to perform to industry benchmarks for peak 5G download speeds. The Sub-6 GHz low-frequency bands, the main spectrum used for 5G, allows Balong 5000 to achieve a download speed up to 4.6 Gbps.
When operating on mmWave spectrum, the high-frequency bands used as an extended spectrum for 5G, Balong 5000 can achieve a download speed up to 6.5 Gbps. The maximum speed is 10 times faster than the max speed of 4G LTE on the market.
After all, P30 is rumored to be launching any time soon. There are pictures leaked online on Huawei’s upcoming flagship launch. However, the images of P30 leaked online looks nothing like a foldable phone. Perhaps Huawei is guarding its secretly closely, and the leaked photos could well be a distraction for the curious onlookers.
Most smartphone makers have lately chosen to launch their flagship products outside the main mobile or tech events such as CES, IFA or MWC, opting to have their stage. However, with the competition heating up, Huawei might well surprise us on the upcoming MWC 2019 with a flagship launch.
According to Phone Arena, Huawei keynote event is scheduled to be on stage at MWC 2019 on February 24 at 2 pm local time, and we are likely to see the new 5G P series unveiled then.
