Wi-Fi 6 was officially launched today, just a few days before the iPhone 11 goes on sale, and of course it will be one of the new features that Apple has implemented for customers around the world. Wi-Fi 6, or 802.11ax, is the new standard that was announced last year by the Wi-Fi alliance, and has now become official for the whole world, although some phones have already implemented support for customers.
Wi-Fi 6 is the simplified name of the standard, and this is because the old ones have become much too complicated for customers, and those who develop the standard have recognized this since last year. Wi-Fi 6 comes to bring significant improvements for data transfer speeds, but also for data security, so we are talking about an extremely important change that only brings benefits to users.

Wi-Fi 6 also comes with a much larger range compared to the previous standard, but also a net higher energy efficiency than that offered by Wi-Fi 5, or 802.11ac. If there are several devices connected to a single Wi-Fi router, then the devices will be able to manage them much more efficiently through Wi-Fi 6, but this is a major benefit mainly for companies with many employees.
Wi-Fi 6 is already integrated in the phones of the iPhone 11 series, those from Apple announcing everything since last week, and the launch of the standard seems to be thought especially for the Americans, and even Huawei. Of course, Wi-Fi 6 is a very good standard, and it brings a lot of improvements, but the problem is that new routers compatible with the technology are needed, because the current ones will not benefit from updates that provide support.
Wi-Fi 6 is currently quite "expensive" to use because the first routers are not cheap, but in about a year things will change for the better for everyone.
