5G networks arent finished yet. Current 5G networks have been built on top of 4G and rely on it for some of their functionality. 5G reaches its full potential only after the network has been fully upgraded to 5G and it no longer needs 4G to work.

Once 5G networks are fully operational they can theoretically reach speeds of 10-20Gb/s.
