Prices for 5G - which will require new handsets - will start at £54 per month for 10 gigabytes of data.

This is why 5G will not replace WiFi or home broadband for a lot of people. £54 for 10 Gig. Windows itself can use a couple of gig a month for updates. Add a few apps, and that can be a couple more gig (although in fairness, unless you are using huge media suites such as the Adobe CC suite, the updates are quite small). Add in streaming, with TV increasingly being online, and even a couple of hours viewing can be a couple of gig.
If you are a gamer, 10 gig is nothing. Even a small game nowadays is likely to be several gig, and if you like AAA titles (such as the Rockstar games, Call of Duty, Hitman etc) as I do, each game can be up to 80 gig.
