- Huawei plans to have more than fifty 5G-Advanced networks operating worldwide
- By 2030, the number of AI agents is expected to outnumber traditional applications.
- Huawei predicts that almost four hundred million AI-enabled phones will be released by 2025
Huawei has unveiled its latest advancements in 5G-Advanced (5G-A), outlining a roadmap combining wireless connectivity with artificial intelligence.
The company predicts that by the end of 2025, one hundred million consumers will own smartphones Compatible with 5G-A, more than fifty large-scale networks will operate.
The forecast shows Huawei's confidence, but it remains unclear how these expectations will align with market adoption outside of China.
Network Design and Technical Strategies
Huawei's approach is based on “AgenticRAN”, a framework that integrates intelligence across spectrum, energy and operations.
The company describes this as a step toward AN L4 automation, but such classifications are internal guidelines rather than universally accepted standards.
New equipment such as the AAU Ultra Wideband Series is a dual-band fusion matrix design designed to provide faster coverage.
Huawei says its Pano Radio and EasyAAU solutions are designed to support more connections with lower latency and are targeted at real-time AI workloads.
Additionally, the architecture is described as creating a high-capacity 100Mbps core network designed to support ubiquitous IoT connectivity and real-time services in the era of mobile AI.
The company is also focusing on connectivity in all environments, from dense cities to remote rural areas.
Examples of this approach include solutions such as RuralCow and LampSite X, which can be deployed in oceans and deserts.
The technology also includes digital antenna and power systems that turn passive components into data-aware, managed infrastructure.
While improvements can improve operational efficiency, industry observers continue to note that overall success depends on interoperability and cost management.
The main claim is that by 2030 the number AI agents will surpass traditional applications, changing the way users interact with devices.
These agents are described as enabling intent-based communication, cross-device collaboration, and even holographic interaction.
If realized, it will change the way consumers interact with personal assistants, combining cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence Tools directly to the network and everyday devices.
Huawei attributes this trajectory to the expected rise in AI-enabled phones, predicting shipments of such devices will reach nearly 400 million units by the end of 2025.
While Huawei calls these achievements transformative, questions remain about global acceptance.
The fastest progress may be in China, where regulatory and manufacturing conditions are stacked in the company's favor.
Outside of China, adoption will depend on whether suppliers to leading smartphone and laptop makers running advanced AI agents decide to support Huawei's ecosystem.
The company's vision also assumes that network operators will prioritize 5G-A upgrades over other infrastructure investments, although this may not be the case.
For now, Huawei is positioning 5G-A as a technological advance and an economic driver, with production forecasts in the trillions of dollars, but its actual impact will be judged by actual deployments rather than projections.
