Huawei announced that will  introduce the world's first 5G television, which aims to be a top five PC maker in three years as the Chinese tech giant looks to challenge Samsung Electronics and Apple in the market for high-end consumer electronics.

According to Tech news, this means they will be able to use the new generation network to download data-heavy content, such as; 360 degree videos in which viewers can watch in every direction, and virtual reality programs. There are questions, however, over how soon the wider ecosystem for such services will be available.

The wireless connectivity provided by the 5G network makes it possible for TV content to be broadcast on various mobile devices without the need for a Wi-Fi connection. In addition, TV broadcasts will be available to a range of screen types under ultra-efficient and 10-times-faster speed than that of the mobile broadband.

However, before the 5G TV arrives in people's homes, many other factors in related industries have to pave the way, CGTN reported.

On other hand, the decision on Huawei role in Britain’s 5G delayed until after UK general election.

The National vote expected on December 12, means decision on Chinese telecoms giant unlikely before 2020, with Washington seeking to stop other governments from using Huawei equipment in 5G networks, firm has become lightning rod for tensions between US and Europe, according to South China post.

Noteworthy, the U.S. government has led a campaign to convince partners to ban it from their 5 G networks, claiming that Huawei hardware could be used to spy on consumers. Huawei has denied the claim on several occasions.

There are actually no U.S. 5 G providers and there are typically more costly European competitors Ericsson (ERICb. ST) and Nokia (NOKIA.HE).

In May, Huawei, the world’s largest supplier of telecoms equipment, was put over national security concerns on a U.S. blacklist, preventing it from purchasing American-made parts without a special license.
