I didn't realise that. I thought 5G is about new mobile internet standard and it doesn't affect how you call or text people. Will older phones really stop working at all? This is the first time I hear about it, big oof indeed
Yes. 2G, 3G and early 4G will be completely unusable in the USA. All old phones will effectively be unusable. (unless a new carrier comes along)
