If 5G does what it promises, people would potentially be able to get rid of cable internet and use mobile 5G for their home internet access, not just their phone. It could also provide access to high speed broadband in rural areas since all it involves is putting up a tower, not running wires to individual houses.
Don't expect it to arrive overnight though - they just approved last month the official 5G technical standard. But the mobile networks are very keen to get it push out (see Verizon's early rollout of unofficial standard above) so it may be available sooner than expected since it has the potential to be such a game changer.
Couldn't find this discussed anywhere else, so here is the SXSW trailer for the upcoming "Becoming Leslie" documentary.
