Does Chipset Matter on 5G Routers? ZTE G5 (MC8520B) Review

Описание: The ZTE MC8520B (also known as the G5 or G50) is the Snapdragon X75-powered variant of ZTE's popular G5 indoor 5G router series. But does the chipset actually matter in real-world performance compared to the MediaTek T830 version?

In this video, we run comprehensive real-world benchmarks on the MC8520B across multiple test scenarios, directly comparing results against the MediaTek-based MC8512 where relevant. The review covers LTE and 5G performance, carrier aggregation behavior, signal quality, Wi-Fi 7 with MLO, bufferbloat, and gaming latency.
