Amazing how the marketing guys can spin such a minor change into a major technological breakthrough. HPUE, or High POWER User Equipment, as it's really called, (more marketing hand waving with the use of the word Performance instead of Power) is nothing more than an increase in the Max transmit power that the Cell Phone (or UE) can put out. That's it. They've essentially turned up the volume on the Phone so the Base station can hear it better. No major breakthrough here, and nothing related to 5G.
