This week, Samsung presented the Galaxy Z Flip 5G, a revised and improved version that now also supports the new 5G mobile communications standard. 5G and better SoC Samsung has given the Galaxy Z Flip a makeover. The new Galaxy Z Flip 5G offers some innovations. The most important thing from our point of view is that the foldable now also supports 5G. The version from last year could only broadcast with LTE as the highest standard. There are other innovations in the Samsung 5G phone, such as the display can be folded up to half its size. While the Snapdragon 855 Plus was still working on the previous model, it is now the new Snapdragon 865 Plus with 5G. This makes the device around 25 percent faster than before. The memory configuration, which contains 8 GB RAM and 256 GB flash memory, has remained identical. New colors Everything remains the same with the display. This still measures 6.7 inches, uses AMOLED technology and displays content with a resolution of 2,636 x 1,080 pixels. Nothing has changed in the camera equipment either. The selfie cam in the front continues to dissolve with 10 megapixels. A wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle camera with 12 megapixels each is installed on the back. The battery is still 3,300 mAh. What is new, however, is a color that Samsung has also added to the upcoming Galaxy Note20 models and other approaching smartphones: Mystic Bronze. This distinguishes the otherwise optically identical device from the 5G-less version. The color Mystic Gray is also new. The enormously high price has remained the same. The new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5G will go on sale on August 7th and will cost much more than current normal 5G phones without a contract. Currently, there are many foldable phones in the market such as Samsung Galaxy Fold, Royole FlexPai, Huawei Mate X and Huawei Mate Xs. They are all the top level smartphones and the prices are high than many compact 5G phones. However, they are in different design, if you are interested in the foldable phone, you may check the details about the fold design and then decide.

Up to 300 Mbit/s download rate
The "Huawei B535 4G Router 3 Pro" contains the Huawei balong chip, an LTE CAT 7 modem. It supports downloads with up to 300 Mbit/s and uploads with a maximum of 100 Mbit/s. However, these are of course only theoretical values and in practice are usually significantly lower depending on the network environment. The Huawei LTE Router supports almost all LTE frequencies represented in Asia and Europe. Bands B1, B3, B7, B8, B20 and B28 are specified by the manufacturer. Unfortunately there is no information about carrier aggregation combinations. If no LTE network is available, the Huawei B535 Router alternatively switches to 3G/UMTS network. Here it is on the bands B1 and B8. Older standards such as GSM or 2G are not available as an alternative. Since the LTE network is already very well developed for most network operators worldwide, this should not be necessary either. The prerequisite is an inserted SIM card in micro format in the existing card slot.
No WiFi ax
To improve reception, the Huawei B535 WiFi router can be equipped with an external cellular antenna. Two connections are available for this. There is also a WAN/LAN port on the back as well as three additional Gigabit LAN connections. Various LEDs are lined up on the front to tell various connection status information, such as 4G, WLAN, LAN, signal strength and power. Up to 64 devices can be connected wirelessly to the Huawei B535 4G Router 3 Pro via the B535's WLAN network. The device transmits on the common frequencies 2.4 and 5 GHz, but does not support the new WLAN ax / Wifi 6. There are 802.11ac/a/n 2 x 2 and 802.11b/g/n 2 x 2 MIMO. The maximum wireless transmission rate via the dual-band WLAN antenna is 1,167 Mbit/s.
No integrated battery
In addition to the LTE router itself, the package content also includes the mandatory power supply unit and a stand to place the device. The power supply plug port is also on the back of the LTE router. The device does not offer an integrated battery, so there must always be an electrical outlet nearby. The 219 x 138 x 25.6 mm large and approximately 325 g heavy LTE router, is primarily intended for home use. Installation is easy and takes place via the compatible Huawei SmartHome app. A multilingual quick start guide is also included for commissioning and clarifying questions. Among other things, support for password-free access to HiLink devices, changing WLAN names and much more is possible via HiLink Smart Home. Other features include SMS service, firewall, PIN protection, MAC address filtering, Wi-Fi encryption, VPN tunnel and VPN penetration, IP penetration, IPv6 and IPv6 / IPv4 dual stack, multi-APN, WeBUI, Administrator maintenance, HOTA and more. However, there is no telephone function. Actually, similar to B535 4G Router 3 Pro, Huawei had presented many similar 4G LTE WiFi Router to the market, such as Huawei B612, Huawei B525 and Huawei E5186 etc… They had different appearance and design, but functions are very similar. They are good for home or office networking. If you are interested in Huawei 4G Router, you may select one from them.
