Like the iPhone11 series, the later iPhone SE also supports Wi-Fi 6 connectivity. In the technical specifications, all four models support 802.11 ax (the technical name of Wi-Fi 6). And the new iPhone is equipped with stronger Wi-Fi performance. This article will use the next generation Wi-Fi 6 supported by iPhone SE to make relevant explanations. Let's see what it is strong in.

First of all, what is Wi-Fi 6? It is actually the latest version of 802.11 standard for wireless networks. We usually call it Wi-Fi 6. The current version of most users' Wi-Fi devices is basically 802.11 ac or Wi-Fi5. Like any new generation product, Wi-Fi 6 aims to provide better performance. At the same time, it also aims to solve the problem called "AC" in the previous generation of products. Communication devices that support Wi-Fi 6 still use the same Wi-Fi for calls. However, calls using Wi-Fi 6 are faster and more effective than before.

As the 6th generation WiFi standard, the technological progress brought by Wi-Fi 6 is actually very complicated. In short, Wi-Fi 6 is better than Wi-Fi 5. The details are as follows:

2. Wi-Fi 6 enables the device to send more information and transmit more at a time.

3. Wi-Fi 6 enables routers and others to serve more devices at the same time.

4. Wi-Fi 6 can help sensors and other wireless devices save battery power by scheduling transmissions. Wi-Fi 6 has the Destination Wake-up Time feature. This function can set a schedule for the mobile phone in sleep mode to receive data. As a result, power in mobile devices such as smart phones and notebook computers can be better managed. It can also manage other battery-powered devices connected to the network.

5. The real benefit of Wi-Fi 6 is that it can better handle crowded networks. Especially in crowded public places, such as airports, stadiums or offices. In these public places, the older WiFi standard cannot meet the demand. However, Wi-Fi 6 can have better performance in dense and crowded environments.

The new iPhone and other devices that support Wi-Fi 6 will certainly take advantage of Wi-Fi 6. But only if they have a Wi-Fi 6 access point to connect to. Of course, Wi-Fi6 routers are now on the market. But most of them are still quite expensive. If your mobile phone supports the new WiFi standard, you will feel faster public networks. Supporting Wi-Fi 6 can adapt the latest iPhone to future needs. However, this is not a necessary function, so, there is no need to replace it in a hurry.
