However, there are currently not many devices that support 6 GHz WiFi – Intel just released its first 6E product in November, and even the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X / S that were released just two months ago are not compatible. But we can see quite a few announcements during CES, especially with Samsung’s new flagships coming this week. The S21 and S21 Plus are used on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888, a SoC that supports the standard.
If you are not yet ready to make the leap to WiFi 6E, Netgear has announced a few more routers that would work well with your existing setup – especially if you’re in an area without wired broadband. The LAX20 is a 4G LTE device with four gigabit ports, which is already available in Europe and will cost you $ 300 in the US. There’s also a new LTE mobile router, the LM1200, which costs $ 150 and appears this month. No launch date has been announced for the RAXE500 yet, but it should hit stores sometime in the spring.
