As it happens I have 5G wifi in my house so we'll see how that works out.  

 

OP. When you say  you have 5G wifi, do you actually mean wifi by 5G phone network? Or 5Ghz wifi via a router?

 

Because these are two different things.

 

 

Both will come from a mobile tower and not through some cable to the house.. thats why its 5G

Yes, if the specifications say 'No brand' you can be sure that it is not the genuine - warranted - product, which does not mean that it cannot be a good deal.

Also if the price is 20-30% of what you pay for the genuine product from the manufacturer, you can be sure that it is not genuine.  In such 'too good to be true' cases, often the name of the product is rendered slightly different, e.g. Realmi instead of Realme, or Somsung instead of Samsung, and those are not typo's...

If you want to be 100% sure that you do not get a fake/counterfeit product, you should order from LazMall on the Lazada website.  Products bought from the LazMall come with a warranty and are 100% genuine, and even better if you do get a fake product when having ordered there, Lazada will re-imburse  you 5 times what you paid for it. 

 

ohh..  Really?  after all this time I did not know that.. Lazmall are all real items... if true thanks very much for that..

Mr Seeall is not seeing it all.

5Ghz WiFi is NOTHING to do with phones as such. It can be used by ANY WiFi device connected to the 5Ghz on your router, Smart TV, Fire Stick, etc etc.

The 5G (5th Generation) phone network is for suitably enabled phones with 5G SIM cards.

Which of course, could be configured as a 5Ghz hotspot. So then you get the 5Ghz WiFi via 5g phone network.

That makes 2 of you who have no idea.  But 2 years after the event I suppose it really doesn't matter.
