5G signal anyone?

there is a few spots here in LA that has 5G, but i have not come across it yet. they keep saying sometime in 2020, though with the coronavirus and pandemic happening who knows when 5G will arrive.

i bought the note 10+ 5G so that i can be grandfathered in when 5G does get turned on. this way i do not have to pay the extra fee they will charge for 5G service for future phones and plans with Verizon.

I got to test the 5G in a proper spot the other day, 701 mbps was what I got :)
It shows as 5G NR (New Radio) in the testing app, the 5G symbol on the phone seems to be when im on either an LTE-A connection or a proper 5G, I'm getting over 120mbps from the LTE- A when in the right location.
