A day after South Korean giant Samsung launched Galaxy S10 5G smartphone
at a packed event here, US President Donald Trump on Thursday said
American companies must step up their efforts or get left behind.
In a tweet, Trump said he wants 5G, and even 6G, to be rolled out in the US as soon as possible.
"I
want 5G, and even 6G, technology in the United States as soon as
possible. It is far more powerful, faster and smarter than the current
standard," the US President tweeted.
"American companies must
step up their efforts, or get left behind. There is no reason that we
should be lagging behind on...," he added.
His comments came a day after Samsung showcased the Galaxy S10 5G smartphone here.
"Samsung
is putting the power of 5G in consumers' hands with Galaxy S10 5G,
Samsung's first flagship 5G smartphone," said the company.
With
Galaxy S10 5G, consumers on a 5G network can download a full season of a
TV show in minutes, play graphics-rich cloud games with virtually no
lag, enjoy enhanced virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR)
experiences and stay in touch with friends and family via real-time 4K
video calls.
Trump's concerns are real as after the US telecom
carrier Verizon announced a 5G-enabled smartphone with Samsung, AT&T
has also announced plans to grow its mobile 5G device line-up with a 5G
smartphone from the South Korean giant in the first half of 2019.
AT&T is also working with Samsung to create America's first manufacturing-focused 5G Innovation Zone.
Verizon
and Samsung in December announced to jointly launch one of the first
commercials of 5G-enabled smartphones in the US in the first half of
2019.
Samsung has also partnered with major European operators to deliver true 5G connectivity on its latest flagship smartphone.
"Samsung
is proud to be making 5G a reality for European consumers by
collaborating with some of our most trusted operator partners to
introduce Galaxy S10 5G to the market this summer," said DJ Koh,
President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), IT and Mobile
Communications Division, Samsung Electronics.
