5G Ecosystem: Executive Summary: December 2021
Executive Summary
Key facts
The number of announced 5G devices has risen by 16.4% in the last quarter to reach a total of 1154 devices. Of these devices, 790 are understood to be commercially available (65.8%). This is an increase of 22.5% over the last three months.
By end-November 2021, GSA had identified:
Not all devices are available immediately and specification details remain limited for some devices.
We can expect the availability of devices to continue to improve and for more information about announced devices to emerge as they reach the market. Based on vendors’ previous statements and recent rates of device release, we might expect to see the number of commercial devices surpassing the 820 mark by the end of Q4 2021. GSA will be tracking and reporting regularly on these 5G device launch announcements. Its GAMBoD database contains key details about device form factors, features and support for spectrum bands. Summary statistics are released in this regular monthly publication.
