Episode 22: 5G, you had me at beamforming [podcast]

Jul 31, 2018

Snapdragon and Qualcomm branded products are products of Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. and/or its subsidiaries.

Qualcomm of the House Wireless Technologies, First to 5G, Maester of Modems, Tamer of Airwaves, Queen of Invention, Protector of the Mobile Realm, and Mother of (Snap)dragons.

In this episode on the future of 5G, our expert Sherif "the modem man" Hanna, Director of Product Marketing here at Qualcomm Technologies, made us consider a new way of introducing ourselves, with a nod to the Game of Thrones universe.

We try to stifle our shock when Sherif says it’s not just about the modem (spoiler: RF components and antenna modules are also key), learn that not all airwaves are created equal, and host PJ Jacobowitz and Sherif share a beamforming moment that only true techies could love.
