Last week, the Global mobile Suppliers Association (GSA)’s August 2019 5G Ecosystem Report confirmed that the number of announced 5G devices has passed a major industry milestone, with 100 5G devices now announced globally. The GSA also revealed that 56 operators in 32 countries have announced deployment of 5G within their live network, with 39 operators having announced 3GPP 5G service launches.
The GSA’s 5G device tracking, which is part of the association’s Mobile Broadband Devices (GAMBoD) database, reports global device launches across the 5G ecosystem as it moves from service trials and prototype user equipment to commercially available services and devices.
