Verizon connected house tour: What a 750Mbps connection can do for you

2017-02-17
the guys John Belasco here so I'm in New York right now and I'm here as a bras and offices and I'm just checking out they're connected space here showcasing the power of Verizon FiOS and what you could expect in the future as we continue to see a lot of connected products in the home and basically what they're showing here is how there's no degradation and speed latency so you know if you have a Google home you're streaming 4k over your network or even playing games it's not going to sacrifice any new speeds so behind this door is that this brand-new space so let's check it out ok before I show you guys what I saw this face we all know that our homes are currently going through this type of revolution now my place I already see in the moment you get through the front door just because I have a ring doorbell they're showing me who's there and once I enter through the door there's also a sensor that tells me when it's open or closed thanks to the piper system and speaking of Piper I have two of them the first being the original Piper while the other one is the night vision equipped model now there are so many connected devices already in our homes that we don't think about from the security camera streaming boxes video game consoles and much more there is an apparent revolution when it comes to home connection so let's get back to the verizon fios space they didn't hold back one bit when it came down to getting out of the place and I was kind of overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of how many connected devices were there and kudos to the interior designers they called in to help them because it featured a very clean and colorful atmosphere well I won't go into every gadget that I found there some of them that's where we include the insane amount of smart lights they're not only work Phillips hue light bulbs use but they in leverage the Philips hue light strips to act in certain areas five out of the six ginormous wall-mounted television sets we're streaming 4k content of some sort which is protecting for any home network when you think about it and we even check out a few smart appliances there's really I'd love to have a space decked out like this but the point of Verizon crafting the space in the first place it the rest attention on the infrastructure essentially the underlying thing here is the wall power of Verizon FiOS is 750 megabits per second instant Internet service when you think about everything that's there it's pretty impressive that the network speed wasn't impacted negatively I was skeptical of course considering that one router was managing everything so I tested out using rucola speed tests on a PC and you know what it's over delivered by achieving a download speed of 862 megabits per second while the upload speed was added even more impressive 903 megabits per second but here at home my dilemma is of course speed and latency has Comcast Xfinity and a cable provider I'm able to choose from and with that I just noticed the more devices I tack on to the network so in addition to all the home connected stuff my laptop my PC all the smart phones all the tablets it does take its toll and eventually I end up seeing degradation in terms of speed and latency when said that my current Xfinity plan is cheaper at 85 dollars per month versus $150 per month for the verizon fios is 750 megabits per second instant Internet service the difference alone is evident and how might be it slowed down tremendously time that's the main distinguisher between these two services yes turning on a light at home using an app on our Android device while away doesn't seem like it's going to take a whole lot but other things such as uploading videos to YouTube streaming a television show or tapping into a security camera won't take us long with the Verizon connection speed and latency will only become more crucial as more connected budgets are introduced at home so if you're very particular about that you'll probably want to do your research on the one hand you can pay less for slower service but for those looking for instant connection instant service and instant play you'll want to take into consideration this drive and FiOS 750 made with per second package now if I'm going to get my space at home to look like the one I saw at verizon's offices that'd be pretty sweet so if you guys want to learn more about any of the stuff I talked about in this video you can check out our website andrew authority comm this is John beat signing off
