"Today is the start of a new era," said Tim Cook, the CEO of the US electronics and tech giant, during a presentation of its new products online.
"Impressive speeds"
"We have carried out 5G tests with more than 100 operators in 30 regions and the speeds observed are impressive," said Arun Mathias, a vice president of the Californian group.
"Under ideal conditions, we measured speeds of over 4 gigabits per second (Gb / s), and up to 1 Gb / s under typical conditions."
He also claimed that the iPhone 12 integrated "more 5G bandwidth than any other smartphone."
