Qualcomm today said it has devised what it calls a 5G Tunable RF front-end. This radio module is designed to let phone makers create unique 5G products that are thinner and perform better. Qualcomm has added the 5G Tunable RF front-end to its 5G roadmap, though the company didn't say how soon this module will be available to phone makers. Carriers in the U.S. and elsewhere are moving forward with 5G, despite the standard's infancy. The 3GPP has defined the basics of the 5G New Radio spec, though it has yet to be ratified in final form. Companies such as AT&T and Verizon insist they will launch some form of 5G service by the end of the year.
