After US telecom carrier Verizon announced a 5G-enabled smartphone with
Samsung, AT&T has also announced plans to grow its mobile 5G device
lineup with a 5G smartphone from the South Korean giant in the first
half of 2019.
The AT&T 5G-enabled smartphone will give
customers a compatible plan access to the 5G network it plans to
introduce before 2018 end.
"5G is going to be about more than
just a network. Customers will eventually be able to connect in near
real-time to unforeseen possibilities," said David Christopher,
President of AT&T Mobility and Entertainment.
"Together with
Samsung, we plan to bring the best in technology and innovation to our
customers. The future we imagine with 5G is just beginning, and it is a
great time to be a consumer," he said in a statement late Tuesday.
AT&T is also working with Samsung to create America's first manufacturing-focused 5G Innovation Zone.
The
goal of the test-bed is to use 5G to enable new and exciting robotic
manufacturing capabilities to better understand the impact of 5G on
smart factories.
"We expect that future smart factories will be
filled with 5G-connected sensors that can channel real-time information
about equipment performance, ranging from vibration to noise data," said
AT&T.
In September, AT&T selected Samsung as one of its technology suppliers to help AT&T build its mobile and 5G network.
On
Monday, Verizon and Samsung announced to jointly launch one of the
first commercial of 5G-enabled smartphones in the US in the first half
of 2019.
