Funny I would call it almost the same. It's 4g plus channel coding, massive mimo, beamforming and more ML which influences the spectrum choices.

The vastly different is a marketing term.

There is "5G" with mmWave and "5G" without mmWave, you've described the latter.

No, actually I described mmave. Just google the words I put in my post and see where it leads you.

The problem is that most of the industry, when they think of 5G, just want to send as many 4k streams as possible everywhere.

No I know what those are. But the industry has generally separated a "5G without mmWave" and a "5G with mmWave" as two stages of evolution. Massive MIMO, directional/beamforming, various ML techniques, improved coding, etc. generally fall into the former category
