Samsung, Verizon and Qualcomm have reached 711 Mbps upload speeds using 5G Ultra Wideband

Verizon, Samsung, along with Qualcomm Technologies, continue to push the limit of 5G technology, using new methods to continue the high performance from these innovative technologies. Recently, companies reached a download speed of 711 Mbps in a lab test using integrated mmWave spectrum bands.
Previous multi-gigabit speeds have been recorded in previous downloads, but this is the fastest speed companies have been able to reach while uploading data to the network. The speed approaching those seen in this latest trial will open the way for uploading videos, photos, and data to clouds, social media accounts, and more.
These effective uplink speeds will also drive new charges for using the private business network. Fast uplink speeds enable quality control solutions for manufacturers who use artificial intelligence to identify minor product defects in virtual products only with Ultra HD video feeds.

The Innovation on 5G Ultra-Wideband Technology
The demonstration has exceeded the current maximum loading speed by combining Verizon’s 400 MHz 5G mmWave volume and 20 MHz 4G frequency using the latest 5G technology, including a combination of mmWave network and Single-User MIMO (SU- MIMO).
The network technology used in the demo includes Samsung’s 28 GHz 5G Compact Macro with virtualized RAN (vRAN) and Core (vCore) as well as a smartphone form testing device powered by the flagship Snapdragon X65 5G Modem-RF System.
The Snapdragon X65 is Qualcomm Technologies’ 4th generation 5G mmWave Modem-RF System for phones, mobile broadband, compute, XR, industrial IoT, 5G private networks, and wireless access. Trading mobile devices based on these Modem-RF solutions are expected to launch by the end of 2021.
Samsung’s Compact Macro delivers 5G mmWave by integrating baseband, radio, and antenna in one way. This integrated and lightweight solution can be easily installed on the sides of buildings, and on state poles, for fast 5G addresses.

Everything wrong with the One UI 7 update rollout and latest Galaxy S25 Ultra and older devices

Samsung makes great phones with cool features and the One UI software. But, the latest One UI 7 update isn’t going so well for the Galaxy S25 Ultra or older phones. Here’s everything going wrong with Samsung.
First of all, Samsung hasn’t said anything about giving the One UI 7 update to older phones. The new S25 phones come with One UI 7 pre-installed already, but there’s no news for older phones. This silence makes a lot of Galaxy users feel left out and unsure about what will happen with their phones.
Why so much disappointment?
The biggest problem is that Samsung hasn’t confirmed if older phones including the Galaxy S24 series will get the One UI 7 update. The Galaxy smartphone users don’t know if they will get new features or be stuck with old software, or when they will get their hands on the latest One UI software.
The users are really upset on social media and forums. They are complaining about how Samsung isn’t communicating well, updates are taking forever, and there are still bugs in the software.
A lot of people are starting to look at other brands because they (Google or Apple) release software updates on time, making everything more predictable.
One UI 7 Home App issue:
The One UI Home app, which manages the Home Screen, has been causing some issues for the users. According to reports, there are issues like icons disappearing, apps rearranging randomly, and instability in navigating the home screen. You can watch the issue here.
There’s a warning for the One UI 7 beta user:
Samsung has warned those who participated in the One UI 7 beta program. The beta users face potential data loss or device instability if they don’t take specific steps before transitioning to the stable version.
Being on the latest release ensures a smoother and effortless transition to a Stable version.
If you are on an older Beta, you may face issues, leading you to manually flash the official firmware through a PC that will remove all the data of your device.
Exiting Beta could be under your consideration before the Stable update comes.
You can proceed with that but ensure installing the latest Beta. Seems like there are some changes in the software distribution this year, as pointed out the by moderator.
As the Stable update is on the verge of release, you should not exit the Beta Program.
If you have withdrawn, make sure to install the official version through Settings > Software update, this will switch your phone to the One UI 6.1 version.
Security Patch Delays and Potential Threats:
Samsung launched the Galaxy S25 Ultra on January 22, 2025, the device is running One UI 7 but with an outdated security patch. The device has a December 2024 security patch.
What a letdown, Samsung’s top phone of the year is still running a security update from two months ago. The delay in rolling out February’s security patches for the Galaxy S25 series leaves these devices vulnerable to known exploits.
In Android’s February 2025 security patch details, there’s a big problem – a zero-day vulnerability that’s already being used by hackers. Google has warned everyone that this problem, called CVE-2024-53104, is being used in some targeted attacks. It messes with how Android handles video frames, which could make your phone’s memory go out of control.
Samsung has been quick with these kinds of urgent software updates before. Disappointedly, Samsung didn’t include the fix for this vulnerability in the latest February 2025 security update. We can expect a new software update later this month or with the March 2025 security update.
Sales Goals vs. User Experience:
Samsung wants to sell 40 million S25 phones, which is a huge goal. It looks like the company might be focusing more on selling new phones than making current users happy. If the company doesn’t fix the problems with One UI 7 soon, it could hurt the brand’s reputation for software support in the long run.
The Galaxy S25 Ultra and One UI 7 were supposed to be amazing, but the delay in the update rollout has been pretty bad for Samsung smartphone users. Samsung needs to fix this fast to win back its users.
I believe Samsung can make it right, but the company needs to be more open, update security quicker, and test software better before releasing it.
