The Wi-Fi 7 era officially begins with the introduction of certified devices

pcgamer.com:

After a long period of development, the Wi-Fi Alliance has officially begun certifying Wi-Fi 7 devices. This paves the way for mass adoption of the new standard, providing more seamless interoperability. Until the next standard comes along, we can expect Wi-Fi networking to dramatically improve, with faster, more reliable connections and reduced latency. The latter is something gamers will appreciate.

Wi-Fi 7 is theoretically capable of delivering aggregated throughput of over 40 Gbit/s, even if speeds don't come anywhere close to that limit. That's fast enough to supplant consumer-level wired Ethernet. But speeds are just one of many benefits offered by Wi-Fi 7. It's been designed to better handle multiple simultaneous connections, or maximize performance with a single connection. A key feature is MLO, or Multi-Link Operation, which dynamically assigns different channels and frequencies to deliver better performance with lower latency and less interference.

Connections in the 6GHz band are now possible, which, along with a wider 320MHz channel width, will allow multiple devices to access speeds in the multi-Gigabit range. Households with many devices including PCs, phones and laptops can use Wi-Fi 7 to do things like stream 4K video and deliver untethered AR and VR services.

But Wi-Fi 7 isn’t just about raw speed and multiple-device support. Lower latency is something that gamers can take advantage of. Anyone that’s been frustrated by poor performing, crowded or congested networks should be happy with what Wi-Fi 7 has to offer. One of the less highlighted features of Wi-Fi 7 is 512 Compressed block-ack, which lowers overhead and improves efficiency. Additionally, Triggered Uplink Access improves performance in latency
