You may confuse the G in 5G to be short for Gb/s or GHz as these terms are used in other technologies. But in cell phone terms the G stands for generation. 5G is a collection of different protocols and standards set to replace the 4th generation ones. The actual speed you get depends on a lot of factors such as the distance to the cell tower and the spare capacity of that tower.
