Wi-Fi 7 is coming to CES 2022 with 2.4 times faster than Wi-Fi 6 and 6E
Although we have only recently seen the influx of Wi-Fi 6E rappers by 2021, chip and modem companies are already working hard on the next big thing. During the annual press conference for MediaTek developers, the company announced that it would launch the Wi-Fi 7 network at CES 2022.
Wi-Fi 6 – also known as 802.11ax – routers are starting to enter homes today, and new Wi-Fi 6E access points have not yet reached the market. However, MediaTek is starting to prepare for the launch of Wi-Fi 7. And the exciting level of technology promises faster speeds than Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 5.
The Wi-Fi 7 will also be known as 802.11be, with MediaTek saying the technology is expected to deliver 2.4x speeds and lower latency than its predecessor, according to company records published in PCMag.
When Wi-Fi 6 was introduced, it was added as a major upgrade to Wi-Fi in ten years. The state-of-the-art technology, which also supports the new Wi-Fi 6E, promises faster speeds, reduced congestion, provides lower latency and has better security.
The normal supported speeds are close to 10Gbps speeds, as long as your broadband connection can handle that. And using Netgear statistics, the Wi-Fi 7 router should be capable of 12 times the speed of Wi-Fi 5 by extension.

According to Ookla, a company that follows the popular Speediest.net app that measures the speed of your internet connection, the average American home gets slower than 200Mbps on average per year, with the sample ending October 2021. Wi-Fi 7, on the other hand, can reach a theoretical speed of up to 30Gbps.
Although the preview of next-generation Wi-Fi hotspots could happen by early 2022, technology could still take years to reach home routers, PCs, tablets, smartphones, and other connected devices. As per the IEEE, the governing body of Wi-Fi standards, 802.11be amendments will be published in 2024 and commercial transactions will take place soon.

Samsung could pack the Galaxy Z Flip FE and Z Flip 7 with Exynos processors. The company could launch its first affordable foldable phone next year. The device could get a different camera and processor from the Galaxy Z Flip 7.
Leaker Jukanlosreve revealed that Samsung could use the Exynos 2400e in the Galaxy Z Flip FE and Exynos 2500 in the Galaxy Z Flip 7. The former Exynos variant powers the Galaxy S24 FE, while the Exynos 2500 is an upcoming product.
Samsung previously intended to use Exynos 2500 in the Galaxy S25 series. However, the chip has a major performance difference from its Snapdragon counterpart. This led the company to solely rely on the Snapdragon 8 Elite for the S25 series.
Exynos 2500 is being manufactured using Samsung Foundry’s 3nm process node. The yield rate is quite low (around 20%), which is far from the production threshold. However, Samsung chose the path to produce the chip at such a low yield rate.
Exynos 2400 has proven to be a decent chip with no frustrating flaws. The Exynos 2400e could be used in the Z Flip FE. The “e” model could be made using IPoP (Integrated Package on Package) tech, which is cheaper than the standard method.
Recently, a Korean media outlet reported that Samsung Foundry has started mass production of a 3nm Exynos 2500 chip. It was initially intended to be used in the S25 and S25 Plus, but issues pushed it towards the second-half debut in the Z Flip 7.
New York became the first US state to bring retail consumer rebates for appliances under the Inflation Reduction Act. Applauding the move, Samsung launched a huge energy-saving opportunity for the residents of New York.
Samsung started offering up-front discounts to consumers statewide through New York’s IRA HEAR program. Consumers can now access IRA’s Home Electrification and Appliance Rebate (HEAR) program.
IRA HEAR rebate program advantages
- Save up to $840 on Samsung’s innovative ENERGY STAR products, including laundry appliances like heat pump dryers and all-in-one combo washers + heat pump dryers.

Samsung said this is just the beginning of its rebates journey in New York. The company looks forward to working with partners to expand these retail rebates to more products and in more states across the United States.
Pay attention, the IRA provides rebates and tax credits to households across America. New York is leading the way in providing direct retail point-of-sale appliance rebates, supporting an affordable clean energy transition.
Inflation Reduction Act
Signed in August 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act is the single largest investment in climate and energy in American history.
It provides home appliance rebates for discounts on electric energy-efficient appliances like Induction cooktops, ranges, and heat pump laundry appliances.
Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra has undergone one of the most extreme military tests. The company has recently published a Watch Ultra test video, featuring Phillip Chu Joy.
Phillip participated in the Peruvian Navy’s Special Operations Course to showcase the watch’s capabilities. It is renowned as one of the world’s most challenging military training programs.
“The Galaxy Watch Ultra pushes technology to its limits, handling extreme conditions with ease,” Chu Joy remarked. “It’s undoubtedly designed for those seeking exceptional performance.”
The Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra proves its durability and functionality in water, mud, and sand — excelling even under the grueling conditions of Peru’s most extreme military training.
Galaxy Watch Ultra
The Watch Ultra boasts a Grade 4 titanium frame. It also features a shockproof cushioned design that meets MIL-STD-810H2 military standards and water resistance of up to 10ATM.
The product is capable of operating within a broad temperature range of -20°C to 55°C4 and performing at altitudes of up to 9,000 meters above sea level.
These capabilities make it ideal for tracking advanced physical activities like ocean swimming and cycling in extreme conditions; take the Perivian military training as a recent proven example.
Samsung’s Watch Ultra is the ultimate companion for sports enthusiasts and extreme adventurers. It’s crafted to endure the toughest conditions with its pro-grade features and premium materials.
Samsung’s Mauricio Revollar stated:
“We wanted the public to experience the Galaxy Watch Ultra like never before in the Peruvian market by creating the most extreme product review ever undertaken here.”
