5G v. Standard Internet -- Theoretical Question

Perhaps a silly question....would PG be able to run using 5G instead of a traditional internet connection??

I currently have Xfinity/Comcast as my ISP, and most times PG runs flawlessly. My cell phone carrier is T-Mobile, and T-Mobile has informed me that 5G internet is now available at my location. The cost savings between Xfinity/Comcast and T-Mobile 5G is considerable. However, I won't make the change unless PG can work just as well when using T-Mobile 5G.

Any comments or suggestions from the community will be appreciated.

Not sure how much that changed in the last 2 years, but this is a check from german office of statistics from 2020:

Can't answer your question directly but reviews of T-Mobile's at home internet service are all over the place.What's worse is problems don't show up at first.
