Two days back, when Google finally unveiled the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL, you may have noticed a few things missing. Unlike a few of its other Android rivals, the search giant didn’t release the widely expected 5G-ready Pixel variant. If you are wondering what the reason behind this is, and why you be excited, the company’s VP of product management, Brian Rakowski has an explanation.

Rakowski notes that the next generation of wireless technology isn’t ready for consumers right now and it’s kind of true. Coverage is spotty, which means even if your phone has a 5G modem inside, you will not be able to enjoy the technology and speeds to the fullest. Thus, Rakowski doesn’t think that this is an ideal time for buying a 5G handset, also the reason why the Pixel 4 5G release was not seen at Google’s October 15 event.
