Sprint IoT Will Be Set On Fire By 5G, Execs Say

Wireless provider Sprint is debunking myths around 5G as it stands today, while painting a clear picture of how solution providers will be able to profit from 5G services and the IoT use cases that the next-generation wireless technology will facilitate. 5G is a powerful wireless technology, but realistically it's still in its infancy. Sprint called out its competitors AT&T and Verizon, specifically and said that unlike the early strategies of these carriers, Sprint's 5G story isn't centered on what its 5G can do in a fixed environment in a very small portion of a city. But rather, Sprint has focused its 5G strategy on what the technology will do for its customers' lives, said Ryan Yahrmatter, head of mobility channel sales for Sprint Business.
