Comcast Shocker: Cord-Cutting Slows, Wireless Soars in Q3 Earnings

Earnings Beat Expectations (Despite Olympic Comparisons) Comcast’s Q3 results trounced Street forecasts. Net income of $3.33 billion (¥8.2% YoY) translated to $0.90 GAAP EPS, or $1.12 adjusted EPS (vs. ≈$1.10 consensus) on $31.2 billion revenue thewrap.com. The revenue marked a 2.7% YoY decline, but topped analyst models (~$30.7B).

Even with that Olympic tailwind, Comcast beat estimates, suggesting resilience in its core businesses. Contributing to the beat, Comcast’s theme parks and content divisions thrived. Universal’s new Epic Universe park drove theme-park revenue up

6G Terahertz Showdown: Samsung’s 140 GHz Testbed vs. Qualcomm’s 6G Foundry in the 0.3 THz Race

The June 2021 Samsung-UCSB demonstration achieved 6.2 Gbps real-time throughput at 140 GHz over 15 meters using 2 GHz of bandwidth and a 128-element phased-array. Samsung notes terahertz wideband channels could eventually support Tbps peak speeds and cut air latency to one-tenth of 5G’s. Samsung obtained FCC approval in late 2021 to trial 6G transmissions in the 133–148 GHz band at its Texas lab. Qualcomm’s 6G Foundry is a broad R&D program spanning spectrum, waveforms, AI-native networking, and integrated sensing, not a single device. Qualcomm demonstrated 50–70% capacity gains in legacy FDD bands through waveform evolution and MIMO without changing

Li-Fi vs Wi-Fi 7 vs 5G: Which Next-Gen Wireless Will Rule 2025?

The IEEE 802.11bb Li-Fi standard was ratified in mid-2023, providing a global framework for interoperable Li-Fi devices. PureLiFi’s Light Antenna One module can deliver about 1 Gbps at distances from 20 cm to roughly 3 m using standard LED sources. Lab demonstrations have surpassed 100 Gbps with Li-Fi, with a cited test reaching 224 Gbps in lab conditions. Real-world Li-Fi speeds are around 1 Gbps, and Li-Fi is positioned as a complementary technology to Wi-Fi rather than a replacement. Wi‑Fi 7, known as 802.11be, began certification in 2024, and by 2025 the first Wi‑Fi 7 routers, mesh systems, and client
