Verizon spokesperson, George Koroneos announced on Twitter regarding the new 5G C-Band Spectrum that the company recently made available to the LG Wing. It shows the dual screen phone that shapes itself like the letter "T," connecting to the stronger network connection that the company has had available since the start of the year.

The LG Wing is a 2020 device from the South Korean tech manufacturer that is one of the first devices to offer 5G on their flagship devices, as the transition to the network initially took place. It only shows that many devices are gaining access to the 5G C-Band Spectrum despite the initial disputes that took place in the country.

The LG Wing: Still Seeing Company Support

LG and Verizon showed that it is still showing support and providing these updates for their devices to connect to the modern features available to them. The public is met with LG's early 2021 decision to discontinue its smartphone manufacturing for all, as it would focus its technology on its strengths like battery production and smart home appliances.

Verizon and its 5G C-Band Spectrum

Earlier during the start of the year, there was a delay to push for the strong 5G connection called the "C-Band Spectrum" due to its drastic effects on aircraft and their instruments. The company was in talks with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regarding its rollout, but the agency focused on delaying it for further talks and research on the subject.

Later in January, telecommunications companies like Verizon and AT&T that initially pushed for the 5G expansion got their approval from the FAA and the 5G C-Band is now available for all. It still saw many grievances from airline companies as it may affect flight schedules and the safety of their instruments when trying to depart or land.

Despite the many complaints, the public is now here to gain access to the 5G C-Band spectrum and it allows many devices to connect to the network for their needs. It also includes defunct manufacturer devices like the LG Wing, and the device still provides support for its users to take on the new face of 5G available in the country.
