Compared to Bluetooth:

  • 60% lower power consumption
  • Six times higher data transmission speed
  • 1/30th the latency
  • 7 dB improvement anti-interference for a more stable connection
  • Twice the coverage distance, and
  • 10 times more network connections

US won't benefit from this tech due to the US Huawei ban.

This sounds like it's proprietary. If it is, I doubt anyone will adopt it.

[-] ink@r.nf 16 points 2 years ago

then I hope it never goes mainstream.

Wow, does this require a special chip on the device I assume? Would it use the same broadcasting hardware?

[-] yogthos@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 2 years ago

I'm guessing this would require a new specialized chip.

Plus 10x more Chinese State control and monitoring.

[-] DigitalJacobin@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago

Companies based in China can, in fact, develop real technology. The US engages in more espionage thsn anyone, but that doesnt mean US companies can't develop real tech.

There are real people and real innovations being made in China and it's so wrong to just summarily dismiss them because they happen to live in a world power that does what all world powers do.

I hear you, and yet the CCP is it’s own special brand of shittiness, of which I cannot abide, or forgive.

So weird how people living under western regimes are more concerned about Chinese state control and monitoring than their own. If you live in a western country then your concern is that any western piece of technology is controlled and monitored by the NSA. But that's just too complex an idea for you to wrap your head around I guess. Screeching China bad is your peak intellectual ability clearly.

[-] s20@lemmy.ml 20 points 2 years ago

Oh, I care about Five (Seven, Nine) Eyes every bit as much as I care about China, I assure you. But in a thread about a Chinese company's new tech, it would be a bit weird to complain about NSA data mining. Kinda off topic, if you see what I mean.

Why is that weird? Western governments are generally bound by constitutional agreements to not utilize that information against their citizens. That's not to say they don't do shady stuff with that information, but getting "disappeared" is more the butt of a Hillary Clinton joke than it is an actual reality for Western citizens ... unless you've really REALLY pissed off Hillary Clinton.

[-] yogthos@lemmygrad.ml 0 points 2 years ago

You should really read up on the revelations that we have from Snowden if you believe all that. Meanwhile, you should let people like Manning and Assange know about not having to worry that you'll be disappeared and tortured if you say something your regime doesn't like.

[-] ExFed@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago

Ahh, yes, because they pissed off the Deep State, which is ultimately controlled by Hillary Clinton. Sorry, forgot about that one.

/s ... if it wasn't obvious

Because they published war crimes committed your regime, but let's just ignore that and make an idiotic straw man instead. 👏

[-] ExFed@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

And your argument is cherry-picked. Which is worse?

If it's western it's a country but if it's Chinese/not western allinged it's a regime?

[-] Ullebe1@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

I generally call democratic countries "countries" and I occasionally call undemocratic countries "regimes".

Yes, most (all?) Western countries are democracies. Yes, China is not a democracy. What is your point?

[-] frippa@lemmy.ml -1 points 2 years ago

Name something bad you think China has done, the US has done that but 10x worse

[-] chaogomu@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Harvesting prisoner organs to give to the wealthy/party members.

Executing people for things they've said.

Quartering party loyalists in Uyghur homes, particularly the forced co-habitation of Uyghur women with male party loyalists.

The list goes on because China is a totalitarian dictatorship, and the US, for all its many, many, faults, is not.

The main difference is that the US is mostly trying to be better, and China is actively embracing the crimes against humanity.

Generally, dictatorships are called regimes. Thus, China certainly qualifies as a regime.

Hell, the actual dictionary definition is as follows;

Regime, noun;

A government, especially an oppressive or undemocratic one.

[-] frippa@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago

So the US is a regime, got it

[-] ShortN0te@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 years ago

If you look at the age of Bluetooth and the fact that this new Technology has no Legacy and compatible Limitations this is not surprising at all. Probably not even feature complete with Bluetooth.

[-] offbyone@feddit.uk 11 points 2 years ago

While I get everyone's distrust of Huawei, Bluetooth is shit and I'd love a better replacement.

[-] N00b22@lemmy.ml -1 points 2 years ago

Here comes the tracking...

[-] yogthos@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Don't worry, NSA already tracks everything you do.

[-] N00b22@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

What if I'm not from the US
