Many netizens asked me about the wifi7 router,I have suggested that there is no urgency for the time being,There are two main reasons:First, the protocol standard of wifi7 has not been officially finalized (expected to be finalized in the near future),Only the first draft was published in March 21,Now the compatibility of the scheme in advance is prone to problems;The second is that the price of the things that just came out is relatively high,Compared with the current cabbage wifi6 router,The cost performance is not so good。 However, there are always people who want to try it, so I have compiled some of the routers on sale for your reference.
Xiaomi BE3600
Xiaomi's BE3600 2.5G version is the most cost-effective one at this price point, the processor is Qualcomm IPQ5312, the quad-core A53 integrates 2.4G wireless (supports 2x2MIMO 688Mbps), and the 5G wireless chip is QCN6402 (2x2MIMO 2882Mbps), which adds up to 3570Mbps and ROM128M+RAM256M, both 2.4G and 5G have independent FEM chips, which are KCT8245SD and QCN6502 respectively, and the signal is guaranteed. On the back is a mediocre 3 Gigabit, 1 2.5G network port.
Although it's wifi7,But the rate is still the level of wifi6,At present, the price of a certain east is 240+(Gigabit version is 220+,),The same price as the manufacturer,I may choose Redmi's AX5400,Cheap and big bowl。
TP-LINK BE3600/5100
IN THIS PRICE RANGE, XIAOMI ALSO HAS A HEAVYWEIGHT RIVAL, TP-LINK BE3600 (7DR5130). This one is MediaTek's scheme, the processor is AN7563PT, dual-core, and the wireless scheme is MT7991B + MT7976CN, ROM128M + RAM512M, 5 antennas. I haven't seen a brush pack come out yet, but the playability of MTK is generally not bad.
TP-LINK BE3600 2.5G port 24+, Gigabit 22+, and Xiaomi's price, but he also has a model with the same processor - TP-LINK BE5100. The price is only 30 more expensive, the processor is the same AN7563, and the memory specifications are the same, but the tether chip is MT7991A, compared to MT7991B, it supports 3x3MIMO, so the total rate has reached the level of 5100M. The BE5100, which can be won at about 270, is still quite fragrant.
Huawei BE3 Pro
Huawei's BE3 Pro used to be priced at 400, but it has recently dropped and is now only 270+. It's also 3600M specifications, but more than 200 can only buy a gigabit network air port version, and the 2.5G one still needs about 400.
In terms of hardware, the processor uses HiSilicon's Hi5651T, quad-core A53, the wireless chip is QCN6224, and the signal amplifier FEM is unknown, but there is an independent chip, and Huawei's coverage effect has always been reassuring.
This issue of the BE router is here,It's still the same sentence,WIFI7You can wait a little longer,Don't worry,The price will come down。
