The company said the new system is designed to maintain a stronger signal by shifting connections to the best available network in real time. The update also includes automated access to millions of secure Wi-Fi hotspots to improve coverage in crowded or remote areas.</p> <p>The automatic 5G network switching begins rolling out today for users with Pixel 9 and newer phones. According to Google, the system uses multiple enabled profiles on an eSIM chip to run different carrier networks at the same time. When a primary cellular connection drops, the system moves the device to a secondary data connection. The company stated this reduces dead zones when traveling.</p>
